/diy/ - Do It Yourself

This will be the next step after I replace the PCV system. Meanwhile, I have also found pic related. I know the PCV hose is leaking from under the thermos, but this has also showed up in the cleaning. Leak down test on #4 just became a priority I guess.

Plan this weekend is;
> Take to friendly mechanic for a leak down test (found a bloke who's happy to let me use his shop and tool for a quick check, he just won any business I may have down the line)
> Replace valve seal.
> Replace PCV valve + lines.
> Pull intake manifold out and check MAP.
> Pull exhaust header and check for source of oil (if leak down test comes back good)
> Replace wrecked engine mount I found under the airbox.

Gunna need to drop coolant and remove the thermos housing to get to the lines in question, will be a good opportunity to make sure there is no oil in it.

> The hose from the pcv to intake manifold collapses under vacuum in the bend.

I found and have known about the collapsed pipe >>908192 for 5 days now. Here I was thinking I had logically discovered the fault by cleaning and attention to detail, but it was clearly dumb luck. Thank fuck someone who hasn't even read the thread has come along to remind me how "daft" I am.

No really, kill yourself faggot.
