Oil Filler Breather Sizes?

Recommended Posts

Ricardo

I've a 1992 1.6 gti. My oil filler breather assembly doesn't fit the mounting bolts. The holes are not far enough apart. What could it be off (all the hoses fit OK)

would this affect the tickover?

It also emulsifies badly and needs cleaning every week even though the water level drops very minimally and the head gasket was replaced with a head skim last year. Is this normal?

Also tickover probs but still working on that as I've read loads on the forum and going through the checks.(may post later if I can't sort that out!).

Any advise appreciated :wacko:

there is only one bolt for the filler pot, emulsified oil or "mayo" is common in these engines in the winter, especially if the car is used for relatively short journeys.

Only one bolt hole but there is a cup the other side!?

So what's supposed to go in the 'cup/slot'?

lol thought mine must be broken cause it's loose, figured the 'cup' had snapped away from somewhere, clearly just need to bolt it back on!
