Is their a DIY guide for servicing the oil/vapor separator?

Post by WBubble »

I have a recently acquired '79 124; a feast for my senses. :lol:

I am attempting to cure at least one persistent oil leak on the driver's side from I believe the area above and behind the oil filter housing. I've heard rumors of an apparatus called the Oil/Vapor Separator.

Has anyone run across a DIY guide for servicing it? Do I need to remove the intake manifold to access it? I have a hunch that it's clogged or one of the rubber hoses is leaking.

Thanks to all in advance!

If it is, I did not have to remove the intake manifold.
