Not sure if I have an issue with my 2.0 T4 or not. I have dual Weber 44s on a stock rebuild about 3000 miles ago; I did have the hydraulic lifters added.
While my temp gauge is being repaired, I picked up one of the Save My Bug T4 dip stick temp units. It replaces the stock dipstick with a device that turns on your oil light on the dash if the oil temp gets up around 235. After installing it I noticed oil all over my engine bay, taking a look while reving the engine up near 2500 to 3000 oil would be travelling up the dipstick home and squiring out the top of the unit. If I pull my oil filer cap the oil stops traveling up the dipstick hole and out of this temp unit. The suction seems normal for other T4 I have had. Any ideas, is this is sign of something I need to look into. Brian (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
