That's the oil return hole, it needs to be blocked off when using a MK1 oil filter.

FinchysSaxo · 14th November 2007, 15:56

yer hes got it in one, if you do not block it up when you turn on your engine it will piss out oil, i found this out as i wanted to tst things when i put the manifold and mk1 filter on

AliC · 14th November 2007, 17:09

so i take it that there is no problems with blocking the return hole?

FinchysSaxo · 15th November 2007, 11:39

no problem at all so far from my car m8, i havent herd of anyone having problems

-Richard- · 15th November 2007, 13:11

ok cheers, but once i tap a thread into that oil return how will the shitty mk2 filter go back on because it will need to be put back for mot purpose surely because of emisions

-Richard- · 15th November 2007, 13:12

+ rep for that mate

FinchysSaxo · 15th November 2007, 14:56

because you are only cuttin a thread in, it should never effect the oil return if you put back on you mk2 oil filter. as you will remove the m10 tap that you have screwed in. Thanks m8

FinchysSaxo · 15th November 2007, 17:02

ok i have had problems with my phone over the last two weeks sony currently have it to fix it

so my spare phone i took some photos of the sleeve as requested. they are not great but owell, wen i get my k800i back il get some better 1's up.

The Sleeve attached to the battery base..

Close up of the copper Sleeve where i have cut it so locks onto the lambda sensor..

And where it is located in the engine bay..

Hope that helps guys, well worth making your own, than spending out £25 quid. I mite even make a load and sell them if people would like some...?

FinchysSaxo · 19th November 2007, 13:49

gdgd m8 im glad to hear it i will have a look now

Anders0n · 19th November 2007, 18:42

Anyone who has fitted this to their mk2 VTR, did you notice the pic of the oil return hole is slightly different? On mine it's further to the right..

Also what's everyone done with the oil pressure sensor?

FinchysSaxo · 19th November 2007, 20:35

i think m8 if you read my guide properly from the beginning you will find that i have talked through what to do with the oil pressure sensor...lol

if the oil return is further to the right it shudnt matter one bit
