[TR] TR 3A Oil breather tube

[DLylis at aol.com]

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. . .
