    engine problem

    New poster! (less than 10 posts)

    Hi all.

    I was still drivening car till today ,as I was thinking it was the alternator belt as that is the sort of nosie a was hearing wineing,
    but change that and it is still there ,so arter looking for the noise, it seem to be coming from the engine , as when I take the oil cap of noise goes soon as it back on noise is back , was now going to the pod gutted.
    any idea of what could be coursing this.

    Thanks Dan.

    I just started it with one of them off, and it does not do it, had the one off from,the carb to the t piece, think the problem is there somewere,
    It has been at the garage for a weeks getting mot,didnt really make much noise before I took it a little bit?

    Last time i heard this type of noise described the restrictor was missing out the t piece that goes to the carb. check that.

    I had the same problem years ago, restrictor was missing, also check the hose for splits.

    sounds like a garage might want your car ,sad but it happens . i trust no-one with my car. do somthing little "make a big deal" and "rips you off" springs to mind.

    request someone to put a diagram of the standard oil breather system and get it all up to sratch.
