Re: Engine 1.6
Nope I meant outlet. Since it is between the oil pump and filter. Why an outlet is there I wouldn't know.

Re: Engine 1.6
Yep that's what I though.
It's painful to use as an oil return just due to locale.
Not sure such a simple bung cover would deal with oil under pressure too well.

Re: Engine 1.6
I tried use it to vent the block
I ran a hose through a catch tank
After 1 track day i had 2ltrs of oil in the tank
It was pumping heaps of oil out so I closed it up again

Re: Engine 1.6
I know this is a old post but could it be used as a oil cooler return?
I'm looking at options to setup my oil cooler but also my catch can. As the head has two outlets not sure which one would be best.

Re: Engine 1.6
Cheers will do.
A feed for the cooler I ment.
Was just thinking of using what the engine has rather then a sandwich plate.
