Help PLS!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok this maybe a daft question as im not too technical minded but .... On a recent drift day (2 weeks ago) , on my last run , I got large plumes of smoke comming out of my exhaust. Now I wasnt actually 'mid-drift' when it happened but was steering and travelling anti clockwise resonably quickly. On pulling back into pit area and opening the bonnet I found oil running out of my air filter (HKS Direct Drive Kit). The engine is a mosly standard 4age - only air filter upgraded. After driving the car out of the site (after allowing engine to cool for an hour or so) the smoke cleared and has been fine since - Over 200 miles travelled since it happened - its my daily drive so I have to use it to and from work daily! Everything seems ok apart from engine 'Hunting' on idle. Have any of you experianced any of these things before? and.... Any ideas what may have caused this and/or ways to prevent it happening again in the future? Many thanks in advance ****** DDDrrrriiiifffttttyyyy !!!! ******* |

oil catch can will help for the future.
To let it run smooth again you have to clean your intake/TVIS from the inside. 5/2018 BMW F22 Coupe 1/1985 Toyota AE86 Levin Coupe |

yes the centripetal force caried oil from the cylinder head through that oil-drain hose to the intake manifold and forward.. happened to me to while going crazy on the roundabout . Im pretty sure it happened to many folks here. Oil catch can to solve the problem, as DJexor suggested.

Help PLS!!
heey can it be that my fuel consuming has raised because of this problem? I havent got a oil catch can and i think there will be some oil in my intake too because of rough cornering.
