Flame trap on 850 Turbo

May 2nd, 2005, 13:33

Does anybody know if there is a flame trap/barrier on the 850 Turbo models. If there is, where do I find it?

Cheers,

Correct, turbos don't have one.

100% sure there is not.

However there is maintenance to do on the crankcase ventilation system if blown seals and high oil consumption are to be avioded.
Start at the intake side of the turbo and work on the pipework from there. Common problems are perished rubber elbows and blocked pipes.
Look particularly at the small pipe from the inlet manifold, under the power steering pump, to the intake side of the turbo.
