[John]

Yes. Iirc the breather is on the tb?

[turbojolt]

right cheers matey, just seemed excessive the amount there is coating the whole thing! cant be great for performance

[mowgli]

erm... the head gasket went.... it will have been breathing heavily...

[turbojolt]

is it worth cleaning it all out? or is that a stupid question lol

[Adam]

Its worth cleaning out yeah if the inlet etc is off.

take the oil breather pipes of and clean them as well as they can get blocked
