RE: [Chrysler300] Oil filler/breather cap on a G



I realize it’s not steel wool per se as in hardware store stuff. I just refer to it as such as it reminds me of some of the scrap that came off cutting operations in a steel mill where I worked in Detroit. 

 

So this means it did come from the factory with an element inside?

Oh, No, not steel wool! Maybe brass wool but;

ANY that I dissected used like a horse hair or a plastic equivalent. You just need something, dipped in oil, to trap any particles from air entering the engine when it cools down after a run. You know, like a modern plastic pot scouring pad!

 

I get to do the dishes occasionally. When doing these chores, it always helps if one can relate the armamentarium to useful car stuff!!

First, thanks to everyone who helped with my heater hose situation.

 

When I first looked at the oil breather/filler cap on this G I thought “hmm, I wonder what happened to the steel wool stuffing that was in there”. Some time later I thought “hmm, maybe it didn’t come from the factory with the steel wool in it”. Can anyone tell me how he oil cap came that year, i.e. was it empty between the concentric cylinders of the cap? Thanks.
