Previous owner modifications

Post by CharlesUK » Mon Feb 19, 2024 10:08 pm

Have been meaning to ask this for a while, previous owner has two aftermarket filters in the engine, im presuming the first is an oil breather pipe? Unsure as to what the second is, located under throttle body behind engine. Any idea for the purpose of them?

Strange as they usually go to a oil catch tank

Charles,
I agree with Kev.
Were you having issues with the engine running? (apologies, I may have missed your earlier post?)

Would I be correct in saying the first is a crankcase filter. Some research and I don’t think it makes a difference?
