hi all bought a new samco hose for between the turbo and when i took the old one off loads of light brown gunk came out its mainly coming from the metering unit but a little has worked up to the turbo. What causes this?

 

oil vapour returning to metering head via standard breather if your still running it. Most replace breather with baileys oil seperator and vent to atmosphere then block up the existing inlet on the metering unit.

 

Aint a clue what its running pal not had it long. where is the breather and whats it look like? is it bad to have all that gunk?

 

Normal thing to find gunk in there, mine dripped oil out the last time I had the hose off!

 

if your running higher than normal boost (7psi+) on the standard breather its a common occurance.

A standard breather would look like this


where an uprated one would look like

shiny tank on right near that blue arrow

get some pics up and we'll be able to tell

 

yep just got a standard breather then. where best for an uprated one? How much you talking for 1?

Tidy lookin engine!

 

bailey... 130-140q including the fitting kit. You can find and a used in good condition. I bought mine from ebay for 45q and still is as new...
