luke keeper of badger Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 they say it helps the cam chain lubrication and it also lets the oil go back to the sump quicker at high revs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikec Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Don't know mate, think they were on it when I got it. Last thing I need is something else wrong what with the bulkhead change and a replacent engine it'd of been cheaper to buy a brand new land rover soon, and I still havnt got the ms for it yet either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
