Hi all,

I have a Series 5 turbo engine and have just done the rats nest removal, for the turbo oil inlet pipe what can be done to replace the rats nest one as it is welded to the rest of the harness? also there is a pipe on the centre plate on a right angle, what is this for?

Thanks

 

You can cut the oil feed off of the rats nest. Or make your own line.

The nipple on the center iron you speak of is most likely the purge line for the PCV system.

 

ok thanks, can i just block that off if ive done the emmisions removal?

also i have a new fuel setup including a carter lift pump to surge tank then bosch 910 to engine, i also have a sard regulator which i was wondering about how to set this up? since the standard one is built into the fuel rail do have to do anything to that?

Thanks

 

No, you need the purge system to be in working order to remove vapours from the crankcase and prevent pressure build up. At the minimum, it should be plumbed to a catch can.

The S5 fuel rails have a built in regulator. You will need to cut the end off of the rail, drill out all the junk inside, then weld on a fitting to use your aftermarket regulator.

 

does the s4 also have this setup? any other easier ways then cutting and welding?

Cheers

 

The S4 rails are cast aluminum with thread in fittings. However, they don't fit under the S5 intake manifold.
