oil breather pipe??

[stompin-sarah]

my brothers been messing with my car today and hes broke my oil breather pipe ive been to 3 different places today to get one but none of the places had them.....


just spoke to my brother to tell him what the pipe was called as i didnt know till earlier and he said something about me being able to put a little filter thing on it ? is this right?

and if it is can someone linky me up to what it is i need?

i seem to think having one of these on... if i can.. that it will slurt oil all over the place and i dont want this to happen?

Yes you can put a breather filter on them, Or plumb it into an oil catch tank.

Something like those. Not sure what size you need on the saxo breather hose though.


How did he manage to break it :geek:

[saxovtsmad]

that looks like the one ive got in my shed in a box

[stompin-sarah]

ok whats an oil catch tank?? linky please as ive no idea lol

he was cleaning my engine and hes broke it in 2 parts... hes broke it where it actually connects to the air filter box and also the pipe itself has split?

my engine is standard at the moment.... so would a oil filter thingymibob be ok ?

which one?

[saxovtsmad]

the one on the link that mr p sent you

[stompin-sarah]

there are loads of different ones on that link?

[Mr_P]

A breather filter would be fine for you. An oil catch tank is literally just a tank for the oil vapour that does come out of the breather pipe to condense into. You can use coke cans that do exactly the same thing. The oil then gets stored and the tank needs emptying every now and again.

[Mr_P]

I'm fairly sure that the top one will fit alright.

[stompin-sarah]

thanks mr p! :)

[Mr_P]

Anytime :y:

[stompin-sarah]

anyone got a pic of one of these things fitted?

[Mr_P]

They just look like a little filter on the end of the breather hose or if you cut it off, on top of the rocker cover. You'll also want to plug the hole that's left on the standard airbox :y:
