Description

Flame Trap is the crankcase breather filter fitted in the rocker cover breather circuit of the V8 EFI petrol engine.

Connected in the crankcase ventilation hose between the rocker cover and the intake, the flame trap filters oil mist from the breather gases and acts as a barrier against flame flashback from the induction system into the crankcase. It is a periodic service item that clogs with oil and sludge over time and is replaced to maintain correct crankcase ventilation.
