Tongs turbo ok after all

[Starlybruiser]

Well My car was smoking a few days ago and I thought oh crap my new hybrid has shit itself, and its only done a few hundred miles, so i think i might of made a few people panic, but after investigation i found my oil catch can hose had got caught in between the inlet manifold and strut bar and had been reduced to half its size, so i corrected this and took my car for a good drive and it hasnt smoked since, so im obv goin to keep an eye on it but i think its fine now, Enzo is a top bloke tho, came straight to me to help me out, cheers

Glad you got it sorted mate. Always a relief when its nothing to major to sort out.

so how do you setted up your oil catch can ?

 

[Starlybruiser]

I just had a hose running off the rocker breather to the tank then a hose off the other port on the can goin under the car.
