So I removed the breather on the timing chain cover when I added the supercharger and mounted it to the mechanical fuel pump location. Both this breather and the clutch housing breather run into a catch can which has created some problems with oil flowing back into the clutch housing and onto the clutch.

Oil can not get to the clutch from that breather , so something else is up with that. I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

As si says, the breather comes from the other side of the housing, I would probably be looking at your clutch oil seal. On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

sounds like a primary gear leak as the transfer case breathes into the drop gear bit right up top

After googling I can see what you mean Madmk1. I didn't realise the breather drains back into the block. Obviously the clutch seal has packed it in again. It was only replaced about 800kms ago. I will have to strip it down and have closer look. While doing so I will re model my breather set up. I will remove the one from the lower block and add one to the rocker cover.

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't had my engine apart from the head down so didn't know where the breathers went. When I hanged the clutch I didn't even look at it. Edited by Dutchy1978 on 30th Sep, 2014. |
