Oil Catch Tank
Discussion
ok , fitted this a couple of weeks back, I'm wondering if there are any pointers to watch for regarding crank pressures and proper breathing, last thing I want is a pressurised sump and the problems this could create.
system is thus, crank breather pipe goes direct to one of the two inlets on the tank, tank has breather filler cap, which vents a little sludge but otherwise seems to work ok. air filter cover is blanked off at the bottom where the breather pipe used to enter and so is the other inlet on the catch tank.
What I'm concerned about is if the breather cap is inadequate in size to vent the crank pressure as quickly, obviously the pipe used to go direct to the turbo side of the filter so air would move more easily and there wouldn't be any risk of pressure differentials.
What are the consequences???
Cheers.
