As above, but, take the sump plug out of it, drill and tap a thread into it to suit a grease nipple. Replace and grease it up. I actually use a combination of grease and oil. And every so often, say every couple of months, drop a teaspoon of oil down the intake.

I've just redone my endless air install but did a writeup on it this time to converge everything into one document (instead of trawling the net). Its for a Patrol TD42T but tells you how to do the mods to the compressor.

Go to -> http://www.mcs.net.au/~grungle/endlessair.html if interested.

Dude, Yes I know, and you can answer to those weekly questions with a one-liner reply. I was just being polite (as some peeps rarely do these days) and showing my thanks. Show me where someone else has gone to the amount of trouble of doing a write-up as Grungle has. Nothing like that writeup with that amount of detail exists. Full stop.

Thanks for the comments bushy,

I know the question gets asked numerous times on numerous forums and it will continue to do so. One of the reasons why I did it (why not as it doesn't take long to document). If it helps out one person then great.

I intend to grow it to include other installs as there are some great ideas out there.

David

It is a great writeup and i have added it to my favourites.

My point is, why bother adding it to the bible, it seems like no-one actually bothers to look there before making a new thread anyway.
