Just checked this cc as it was just to small 5mm Id so I’m wondering if that what was causing the oil up the dipstick tube got all 12mm pipe n connectors but no good if going though a 5mm cc in/outlet that’s a 10mm inlet in pic 3 with the (12mm meant to be) sitting inside it lol so taken out now argue with seller then get the cc u linked me to see how she goes from thereWhile running...also check the amount of vapour......have a rag handy as oil will splash out, splashing oil is normal from the cam/chain directly under.
Just I'm about to redue my oil catch can using MUCH biger internal diameter pipe.....any build up of blowby pressure in the crank case will I think restrict oil flow back to the sump from the turbo oil feed....its just a theory......it will then be forced out of the rear seal...only drips but on idle will build up and smoke.....but while driving would be un-noticable!
So would be interested in someone else with the same or similar issue doing the same test....
