So out of my pcv valve, my catch can has caught an enormous amount of oil/gases and has nearly filled up in just 2 days. out of the top of the lil valve next to the tb, on top of the valve cover next to cylinder 4, gases are coming out of that as well. anybody kno wat is goin on ?
also, earlier this morning, my exhaust was blowing out a lot of smoke, couldnt tell what color it was. -------------------- You say you don't understand how we go dumb, but have you ever been where i'm from?
-=-] Livin it in tha bay's a lil different [-=- |

check your compression, could be blow by caused by bad rings ,or a plugged vacuume hose.
