Re: It's a beautiful day! rebel2cv wrote: Even though it was changed in September? hmm its kinda full of shite at the moment tho isnt it? getting it good and hot will help burn some off where does the big breather tube from the top of the oil filler go? is it open to the elements? or does it have one of those boy racer "dump tube" filters on it if its closed off you may be stopping the" breathing" that the engine needs to do. also if the breather is kaput itll be sucking in as much cold moisture laden air as its trying to dump out Sean

Re: It's a beautiful day! The seal on my breather is bollocksed which let's water in and that turns to mayo in the breather. I've done a couple of oil changes and some long runs before and after etc and it's only when it rains that it occurs, and it leaks oil from there too. I should fit a new breather but I can't be bothered plus it's more expense and if the worst happens I've got a stack of engines anyway.
