For the people who know :)

Is the OEM setup in any way also to lube the TB valve ?

I notice there is pretty much oily substance in the TB whenever i have the filter off.. therefore I think it would really help keep things clean in there when you tuck away the tube with a little breatherfilter.

But once peoples reactions were that it's designed to also oil up/lube the valve ??


Thats a good shout, but the life span of a 172/182 throttle body is shat! It will spring an internal electrical fault before the butterfly even notices it needs lubed :D
 
  RS RIP
^^ maybe it's even the "environemental friendly" design (putting the oilfumes through the TB to be burned) that is prematurely braking our TB 's !? :eek:

any more opinions ?

Lube or environement ?
 
i got a samco type 1'' bore tubing and ran that across the bulkhead, and tucked the breather just by the headertank so its secure and out the way of the majority of heat. absolutely no problems, and the only way you know its fitted is because it makes a noise on idle.

Any pics of header tank bud ?

What so you can fit a breather filter rather than paying 70 quid for a samco 90 degree bend with the breather pipe attached??

Just buy a 90 degree bend and cut a bit off it to fit/make it shorter.. Thats what I am doing :) £17 instead of £70 thank you please :)
 
  182
if you just want a 70mm 90deg bend we can supply blue ones for £15.66 + £4 delivery inc vat. These are nearly always in stock as we use them to make up various BMC CDA/DIA kits..
