Cam Cover Gunk!

Featured Replies

Hi to all the Briskodians

I know there are a few threads out there on this but i was interested to know if anyone had seen an improvement by changing the type of oil they used.

I use Castrol Magnatec 10w 40 the car is a 2000 1.6glxi.

My roundtrip to work is 85 miles so the short trip theory does not apply, the coolant level is steady and i have never seen the gunk on the dip stick.

When I cleaned the throttle body the breather pipe to the cam cover was completey blocked with the salad cream!

Happy Halloween to all Briskodians!:)

Hi that is the same thing i get with my 1.4 16v even though the head gasket was changed for another reason mainly timing belt snapped

the breather pipe also has mayo inside it
