In other applications, I believe there is typically a pressure relief valve before the filter cannister, for exactly this reason. This is not the usual case on our conversions, so the high pressures are a possibility. Adding the pressure relief pump cover fixes this, to the extent that the relief valve can drain off oil. The relief covers really are a nice way to do this, but I wonder if they could still be overwhelmed because the relief orifice is not all that big and a big pump running at high rpm can put out a lot of flow. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
