Best thing is to acquire another box, soak it overnight in a bowl of petrol, then leave to dry in the sun, followed by a quick go in the dishwasher.



Don't tell Mrs danzigfan!  ::)  ;D

You'll get the number on wednesday when I rip it out.... >:( :P ;D I went for a drive minutes aho again, came home and no smoke and no burnt oil smell ???  Pressure on gasket probably rises with rpm because I didn't pass 2000 rpm this time.
What if I try to clean and fix breather box only without touching cam gasket again?

Should be ok as the seals are new :y

Box is a metal lump so absolutely no reason not to use second hand ones and clean thoroughly before fitting... Common to all Omega era v6s :y

How long does it take to remove wiper scuttle? I'll try it that way instead of plenum removal for the 5th time now

Beware, the fasteners are not captive, and will head for the hills if the scuttle is lifted off with them still in place. Don't ask how I know this. :-[ :-[ :-[

As I need to remove plenum, injectors and all unnecesary stuff away that would be the easyest acces to the breather box remove I guess.

Just force I paper clip, or similar diameter item through the small hole in the breather box brass pipe, and dig out any crap in the large bore pipe. There's no need to go any further than that as far as clearing the alloy breather box goes. There is nothing to be gained by removing it.

There is a guide on this somewhere.

Ps I have had the box off before. You have to destroy the rivet to open it. It's not complex just a baffel plate. Nothing more in there.

Just force something through to clear any blockage. :y
