HELP water coming out my rocker cover breather!

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

got all the receipts mate , was fitted at tuning developments

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

just about to drop the oil, what am i looking for in the oil?

[micky boy]

Take it back lol if thats the problem of course

[200bhp starlet]

Shit well it shouldn't of gone mate I can't see it being anything else tho before you had that rocker and catch can what was your setup

[akyakapotter]

if the hg has gone it will look all milkey mate.

[200bhp starlet]

This ^^^

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

before my race spec cover and catch can i had a hose going to another catch can that was open to atmosphere and PVC valve into inlet

[200bhp starlet]

No sign of anything there I take it or you would of spotted it

[ryan lang]

condensation?

hot air and oil going into a cold alley catch can?

put your old rocker back on and run standard setup just to make sure its not that

[shorty]

Looking at the lines and inlet on the can that looks like hg to me dude. could just be bad luck. What boost you running? What headbolts are on the recipt for fitting? Is a weekends work to fix but idealy get the head skimmed and crack/preasure tested.

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

just did a compression test before im about to start draining her, 150,150,150,160

will let you know what the oils like once drained

[shorty]

Tbh mate compression test just shows its not blowing by on a cylinder. could just be a slight lift between an oil/water way. is all it would take tbh

[turbo Grant]

Best hope it's just condensation

[Louis]

condensation?

hot air and oil going into a cold alley catch can?

put your old rocker back on and run standard setup just to make sure its not that

THIS!!!

I had a catch can setup on mine and it did exactly the same its just normal as its hot air condensating mixed with oil

My headgasket wasnt gone and neither is yours by the look of the results

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

oil looks fine, bit dark but was planning on servicing it next weekend

could it still be the head gasket? or am i looking at the rocker cover now?

[200bhp starlet]

Maybe Try going back to your old setup see if it runs ok mate ??

[PaulStarletSR]

^^^^ x 2

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

car drives perfect mate wouldent have known without looking at the catch can! im servicing the car as we speak

[shorty]

Street racer has a good point tbf. though i hate to agree with him lol.

[daniel_g]

Yeah mate just make sure the catch can setup is spot on before jumping to conclusions.

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

put old rocker cover back on, so PVC valve and breather and all seems fine , no smoke, no water :s

[BoGlE]

Would of thought its just condensation mate. if your worried just do a compression test but i cant see it being a h/g.

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

comp test went

1 150

2 150

3 150

4 160

i think its sorted now apart from the tweet i can here coming from somewhere, calling it a day as I've been on the car since half 9!

[micky boy]

Is the tweet not the alternator? mine used to tweet on cold morning's then sort its self out when it was warm lol..Glad its nothing major matey

[Josh@TunerLifestyle]

only started tweeting since i put the new inlet on, all bolts are tight , everything in place,

its only on idol it tweets even when warm, i can see it getting annoying lol

but yeh im so glad its not HG!

i didnt think it could be as tuning developments give the engine a full rebuild about 3 years ago and the head gasket was only done a year ago by them too, looks like i cant use a race spec rocker cover for my style of driving as i only go a couple of miles the condensation builds up.. probs be for sale soon....
