Hello all,
Coolant has remained up to the mark in the header tank for the year I have had the car, so no loss there. However, fortnightly I have to scrape a good dollop of mayo out of the oil filler neck.
I have cleaned the cap, which is old and grungy but blows through, and the tubes to the air filter box. The oil in the sump is uncontaminated. When the car is running with the cap off there is steam issueing from the hole. I run 10 miles each way (all 30mph) to work and back and running temp is reached within 2 miles.
- Where does all this condensation come from?
- If the oil cap is old would I benefit from a freer flowing new cap?
Thanks
