Title: Oil Catch Tank on a 16v KR any ideas?
Post by: monzablue16v on 23 February 2007, 00:39

Hi guys,

After stripping my engine down I have found a fair bit of oil scattered around the intake parts, So I am thinking of adding an oil catch tank to the breather however this has one feed to the airbox and one to the inlet manifold. Has anybody done this before? any pics or links?

Thanks in advance

No no no lol thats an 8 valve it's totally different on the valver just to be bloody awkward!! it goes from the front of the engine to the manifold then into the airbox and breathes oil into the engine at higher revs just wondered if anybody had done it to their valver.
