Zap Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Hi, just have been changing my spark plugs and air filters. Noticed there is a open plug type hole with a cap attached but not in the hole. This is on the right hand side of the engine cover quite low down. I'm not 100% on what it is and if it's suppose to be open or closed? ~zap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj1 Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 A picture would really be useful. I think I know what you're referring to but will wait until we can see it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 probably an egr delete but without knowing what engine it is hard to guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cj1 Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Yep, that's exactly what I thought you meant. It's an access hole to get to the flywheel etc through the gearbox casing. Best to keep it closed to keep rain etc out. Although on mine sometimes it pops up and doesn't stay down! Edit: Quite interestingly I remember seeing somewhere that someone mistook it for the gearbox fill hole lol!

If i remember i did close it before but its popped back open which made me think its suppose to be open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine all the friction surfaces coated with EP90. They'd have had to remove the box just to fix it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
