Geastb 0 Posted January 16, 2007 Report Share Posted January 16, 2007 The small circular plastic piece that sits at the top of the engine that is part of the breather is leaking - does anyone have a part number and know where i can get 1 cheap? Been to VW and there EKTA doesn't have the part number listed! Can i get the same part off a galaxy engine? Might be cheaper from f*rd?I'll try and get a picture tomorrow if no-onw knows what i mean!

Steve @ 1 Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Yeah oil catch tank. Or like me lazy (oil catch tank in the garage waiting to be fitted) I just run a length of hose with a breather on the bottom down the rear of the engine. That way you dont get the fumes in the cabin. Link to post Share on other sites
