I was thinking on changing to the simpler newer set up but some one told me it was a pretty good set up, must have been DG.. or was it Mr Dell???
Anyway, for the dipstick overflow situation, I wrapped a bit of flannel around the top of the tube held on with a couple of wire twists. (Ben told me that these wire twist pliers would be really usefull, absolutely right, a great invest) When I took it off a few weeks ago, it was soaked in oil.
When I put the engine back in, I will be bunging up the dipstick. I have a chemists black rubber bung, just right for the job and thought I would put a screw in the top and wire it to the top of the tube, so it does not get lost just in case it does blow out. I also have the ART intake on the car, I think Big_MVS suspected that this was the cause???
