Smokey Oil

Featured Replies

Have been through pages on searches but haven't turned anything up so......

Due to the crap i found in the inlet when i previously took the EGR valve off to blank it, i decided to fit an oil breather filter to the rocker cover breather and blank it at the inlet to keep it cleaner (venting vapour to air instead of engine).

Now when the engine is running smoke pours out of the breather filter like a chimney.

I have never seen smoke like that from an oil breather before.

What do you think ????

This is worrying me so please help.

Thanks, Simon.

UPDATE:

The oil level has dropped significantly, although there is no oil in the header tank and the car is not smoking badly so i can only assume it is coming out of the breather as smoke.

HELP.
