What part is this?

[Keggers]

Hi

I have some oil weeping down the right hand side of my engine, around where the spark plugs are and below. I can see it if I look between the back of the rear wheel and the wheel arch. You can see it in the first picture below.

Looking up from under it appears to be coming from a canister about the size of a small apple that sticks up from above the spark plugs. The cannister has two wires coming out of the top. You can see this in the 2nd and third pictures below, taken from below (2nd) and from above through the engine bay (3rd).

Can anyone tell me what this part is?

Cheers

Greg

Cheers Rick.

Any idea if this is easy/cheap to replace?

You just need slim arms and short spanners. :D It's pretty straightforward - it just unscrews. Part number 996.606.203.01, UK price is £31.94+VAT.
