What is this hanging on to my zetec?
trogdor - 17/4/06 at 07:13 PM

i have this box with metal pipes that run round by the exhaust manifold on my zetec 1.8 from an escort xr3i. i am trying to find out what it is, does anyone have a clue? the picture is not very helpful i know, will try and get a better one if its required. i know that i could prob find out what it is if i had a haynes manual, but have not yet aquired one.

i want to remove this, whatever is it as it will be in the way of the install. i am using a standard ecu and loom for now, so don't want to remove anything that will stop it working!

hope someone can help. many thanks Rescued attachment Photo-00261.JPG

That looks like the bottom of the breather box.. Thatl be a breather pipe. You can get rid of that and replace with a box off an auto which is alot smaller.

Jut make a blanking plate and dump the lot. top breather should be up to the job on its own

You ain't going to get many exhaust gases through that blanking plate
