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?

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.

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.

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.
