as above fitted a oil breather from auto speacialists and is ticking over at 2000 rpm just wondering if any 1 else has come across this and if its normal after fitting 1

Certainly not normal.... Have you checked for loose hoses/air leaks etc?

craig rst kid

yh all hoses seem to be ok could it be because i have connected it to metering unit as a standered breather kit was connected to it

I have the same kit and did not do owt to the revs. any cinked hoses

craig rst kid

no kinks in hoses have you blanked off the metering unit and veted it to atmosphere joe because i have connected mine to metering unit

Any time you change anything on an MFi engine it will need another tune and setup. Read the guide i have written up for DIY'ers.

If your venting to atmosphere then you have just created a big air leak, on MFI this will make the revs drop and maybe even stall, on EFI this will make it rev higher like opening the throttle a little or the ICV.

no its to the metering head. my mates car is on mfi and vents to atmosphere he just bloked off to the metering head pipe i think

craig rst kid

sorry i am running mfi which is beggining to worry me as i have only had a set up 2 months ago

Yes but MFi can go out of sync by opening the drivers door

craig rst kid

lmao i know what your saying jano will it be safe to drive if i stay off boost for a bit as i am contemplating going efi anyway ad am trying to get round the missus as i have a near enough brand new bottom end and dnt want to risk scrapping another 1 due to crap fuelling issues mfi rsts suffer with lol

If your talking about oil seperator tank then yes this rev increase happens.i had the same happen.the small vaccum hose that should go from left side of inlet to the back of oil seperator needs to be only few mm wild inside.too big will increase revs.or you could just block both ends.

ooo ooo ace where will i find this guide?? link please as i want to go n see if i can bugger something else up haha!

craig rst kid

cheers mate take it s nothing major to worry about then tried a thinner piece of hose now ticks over at 1200 rpm can live with that if its nothing major to worry about

kermitt

Did you use the correct fitting lit i.e. Baileys? Or had you bodged it hence the air leak?

essexRSTSouthend

Yeah,i got plastic adaptor too,so i could run smaller hose than what the seperator took,just to get the revs down.shorter the hose helps too.did you keep the one way valve that originally went to the old breather? Turn the idle valve in slightly to help.When this happened to me,took me awhile to get my head round it.if you need pics,let me know.

essexRSTSouthend

Basically your giving the metering unit more air to play with,hence the rev increase.blocking the breather hose to the metering unit would also be a option.nothing to worry about.

craig rst kid

no mate thats why i started to worry about the rev increase lol i got a thinner diameter blue piece of vacum hose from the local spares shop and it dropped the revs from 2k to 1200 k but woul like those pics if youv'e got them please essex to get it running spot on lol

essexRSTSouthend

Ok mate.ill take some tomorrow for you.im currently using the method of having the metering unit blocked,as since i fitted that oil seperator i notice more oil going into the metering unit,as was used alot during summer period.currently have breather filter on it until i get the dosh to add a catch tank.

craig rst kid

Cheers mate would be very helpful i will most likely go this route aswell

Pictures







As you can see it bloody cold outside,car partly stripped.But anyway hope that helps.
Picture of how it use to be connected..

craig rst kid

nice 1 mate cheers 4 this did you use another breather filter to the air metering unitor just blanked it off thanks for this

mr_joe0606

You have to blank of the metering head pipe pal.

yes get a blanking plate put in and your sorted.

craig rst kid

cheers mate

project rs

my breather never had this little pipe on it you sure you not got a efi one as mine only had the bigger pipe outlets and was slightly bigger unless it's to do with brands i had a baileys one

craig rst kid

definately mfi m8

essexRSTSouthend

All sorted yet mate?
