Oil catch pot

[volospian]

The oil catch pot has a small hole, just under the air box. I assume something should be connected into that, but I can't see any loose pipes lying around anywhere looking for a home

I'm guessing it connects to a MAP sensor, or something?

I think its an overflow. Could be wrong.

Should be one big tube and one small tube connected

[volospian]

Well, I have a big tube, connected to the engine breather, but I aint got nowt else

Any idea what it should be connected to? Maybe I can find the other end and trace where the pipe has gone.

It should connect to a 4 way under the fuel regulator. Its usually routed down the V to the offside of alternator and aircon compressor.

Related question.

Has anyone fitted an aftermarket catchtank to replace the standard one? I don't fancy my airbox filling with oil at some point in the future.

TIA.

I haven't, but I think a few others have. I was thinking about it, but haven't got around to it yet. Have a look here: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?h=0... and here: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/gassing/topic.asp?h=0...
