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?

I'm sure you've figured this out already, but it hit me 5 minutes after I left your house that it all points to a blown head gasket. especially the clay colored oil... I don't know why I didn't think of that before.
