coullstar 2 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 Just having a good check on all things under the bonnet last night and I noticed a patch of oil on top of the rear engine mount. It seems to be coming from a pipe that T's out of the air intake pipe just before the throttle body. The line then seems to go into the block.Is this just an oil breather? Its only a small leak so not too worried. Link to post Share on other sites

mightyvr6 0 Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 The breather is plumbed into the air intake so if you have a hole there it amounts to an vacuum leak which means the car will underperform and run a bit rich. The part can be purchased from Ford fairly cheaply. Link to post Share on other sites
