After I rebuilt my motor I posted that I was getting oil out of the
breather tube when parked in the garage, and while driving based upon what I
see
on the underside. Because I had newly rebuilt I wrote it off to blow by
and waited until the motor broke in.
Well, I now have 178 - 181 compression readings and nice cardboard brown
plugs and she runs very well. . . and the oil still drips from the breather
tube. I have an aftermarket alloy valve cover and I have over drilled the
vent hole in the cap and on the underside of the cap, and don't lay on the
cap when I screw it on. Still. . .
So I checked my oil level and removed the new felt on the dipstick that was
about four times thicker than the one that came off and filled the oil to
the 3/4 mark with the new dipstick position. Still. . .
