Blow By or something else?
Symptoms:
At highway speeds only 45+ oil spits out of the dip stick tube. Hard to say how much but its enough to wonder about.
There is no oil in the air filter so no blow bye that way.
Runs strong
No knocks
Cranks fine
idles fine
not overfilled
Checked PCV and CCV valves are not clogged
PO put a head gasket on it so I would assume it had over heated on him. He did not say weather or not he had the heads checked. I also assume he did not have them checked. Has not done this since I got it but did start shortly after I purchased.
any new ideas besides welcome
Cracked/Worn Rings
Clogged PCV CCV valves
I am going to take off the valve cover gasket off and clean and see if that helps
