Pcv Problems
Pcv Problems
hey guys i have a problem with my pcv I capped the nipple on the Throttle Body and I left the hose connected to the valve cover after driving the car for a day and a half it has been shooting more and more oil out of it I tried putting a breather on it and it made it worse. I don't know what to do if anyone can help please let me know.
Thanks Matt

The answer may be to run the pcv to the intake side of the blower, and run the port under the T\B (open to lifter valley) to the intake side also.
Leave the T\B port capped and if that doesn't solve it look to the intake manifold gaskets.
Have your heads been cut or milled? If so, you may need to cut a corrosponding amount from the ends of the intake to seal.

You know you make a good point maybe i do have a bad intake gasket because it just keeps getting worse and it feels like my low rpms is hesitating. Almost like its loading up.
Thanks any other sugestions would also help. My motor is bone stock also so machining is not an isssue.

Do you have idle issues? Does it idle high and then drop down and almost stall?
I searched this subject, that's the info in my above post, several people have reported this problem.
Even with proper pcv venting, i don't understand why there's that much pressure in the crankcase without a problem existing...(blown intake gasket, or worse)...
I'm going to run the pcv line and valley evac. line as stated above saturday, and i'll see what happens...I wish running a compression check wasn't such a hassle,(access) but after running those lines and changing my intake gaskets again, that's all that's left...
Good luck, sounds like we are in the same boat!

I just finished the intake manifold gasket job. Im not totally sure this will solve the problem but mine was leaking out the back anyway so it was a good idea. I couldn't find a compresion tester today so unfortunatly I could still have a blown head gasket. I did not start the motor because i still have to change the oil and let the assembly glue dry for 24 hours. Ill keep posted plus if anyone has any ideas let me know.

I changed my intake gaskets and that cured the blowing oil everywhere problem....I did put a straight edge on and it's about .005 warped on the pass side.
I figure it's due to the powder coat process (500 degree heat)...
I sealed it well, but if it blows again, i will have it skim cut for flatness.
I also ran my pcv and valve cover breather as stated above.....
