Snookium 1st Gear May 13, 2007 Share May 13, 2007 Has anyone install Capsule along brake line??? I realize that after sometimes when you took out the capsule, you can see black thick sticky oil dripping out of the capsule... so my question is if i did not install the capsule to filter the oil, will the oil accumulate along the years and cause malfunction on the brake line? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elfenstar 3rd Gear May 13, 2007 Share May 13, 2007 how old is your car??? vacuum hoses tap from the pleneum and there should be little/no oil at all unless you've a pretty bad case of blowby or put wayyyyy too much oil (think almost dripping) for an oil based air filter.

Elfenstar 3rd Gear May 14, 2007 Share May 14, 2007 Bro, i just what your car is. Can you pls go to a mech and get the engine compression tested. If he tries to charge you more than $20 smack him on the head and let me know the compression figures across all 4 cylinders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yjhlouis Neutral Newbie May 14, 2007 Share May 14, 2007 I don't think yours is install to the brake line, should be the manifold. I had install the capsule in JB, that mechanic do not know how to do it, and he anyhow install. I had the problem rectified in S'pore, when the capsule was remove from the manifold, there were black colour oil dripping out, the mechanic in S'pore then soak the capsule in a pail of engine degreaser to remove the black colur oil and install it to the brake line. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
