Yeah. Current testing only consists of running in the garage and a quick trip out the front to wash it after the 6 months of fabrication. The car has had alot of mods recently, including a brand new
ECU. And it hasnt been tuned at all apart from my begginner attempts to get it atleast running. So im reluctant to get it out on the road and driving until its tuned by a non-amature like myself. But at the same time, im reluctant to get it down to the tuner unless the oil drain system is all good. Kind of a catch 22 situation.
In the testing ive done i have allowed it to reach normal operating temps, and given enough RPMs to reach max oil pressure. And the drain system has not had issues apart from what was previously discussed. The only added variable will be with the vehicle moving about, and with the possibility of blowby cloggage.
I guess i could try and measure the vacuum generated inside the collector using my miti-vac and see if it is pulling a significant vacuum?
I did previously have the cans simply draining via a little tap for each can drain out the bottom, and yeah, there was always a small amount of that e85/oil/water goop mix. But its never been a massive amount. And it never clogged the taps. The car is not a street car. Once its up and running properly again, it will only be used for motorsport. So it doesnt collect the same level of condensation as a frequent cold start street vehicle, and with the motorsport, you can be sure it will always get nice and hot to boil off any condensation that does make it. And also very regular oil changes. And a very large capacity oil system. (Over 5L now due to over size sump and the very large remote mount oil filter, oil cooler, accusump and associated plumbing)
And im guessing that because it is constantly draining, having the goop accumulate in the first place in order to clog probably wont happen. I am kinda reluctant to drill out the holes larger than 1.5mm now as then i could potentially be introducing swarf into the system. And i dont want that.
I think the next step is get the car tuned and see how it goes on the dyno. Then driving with g-forces etc.
