I'm looking for the voice of experience. The scenario is this: I filled up the engine sump with oil just before I left and put on the valve cover cap (I know this is fact). I drove 75 miles to Tampa

It sounds to me like you're trying to discreetly ask if we think someone stole your cap. It seems obvious to me that someone at the show took it. (ie) If it was on the car at the show, then it was ob

I would take the oposit tack from Bob, my reason? If there is no restrictor in the oil lind from the block to the head (and there shouldn't be) and everything in the lubrication system, you should h

I'll second Dave's opinion. If the rocker assembly is getting as much oil as it's supposed to, after a 75 mile drive with the filler cap off you would have a LOT of oil all over the engine compartmen

There's little question that your cap wasn't missing for very long. The oil spray would have hit some hot surfaces and brought it to your attention. My big question is -- What sort of gearing (and p

According to Carl Cederstrand's booklet on rear end conversions, a Michelin 165 x 15, ZX tire turns 813 revs per mile. (He doesn't specify tire pressure.) Multiplying by 4.3, the rear end ratio, res

I'm with Chip & Dave on this. I had a cap that didn't seal quite right and even with the cap in place, I'd end up with oil all over the engine compartment after just a short drive. After 75 miles I'd
