Make sure the pcv is working. If the pcv valve is plugged, you'll vent vapor through the breather and oil will condense all over the place. It makes quite a mess - and smells too.
I think the correct way is to remove the pcv valve from the valve cover and start the engine. You should feel vacuum on the end that goes into the valve cover. You know, put your thumb over the hole and see if it sucks. If it doesn't, you can pull the valve off the hose and see if the hose sucks. If it does, your valve may be stuck. They are only a couple of dollars at the parts store. |
