Hey everyone, so my 5th gen celica has been leaking oil from the dipstick out for a while now. My worry is that it is a bad piston ring. However:
1. The PCV wasn't even there, and its vacuum was plugged. 2. Positive Crankcase Ventilation hose was clogged too. [hose below] ![]() -I have replaced the PCV and removed the plug from the crank case hose. -I turned the car on but couldn't take it for a spin, but for the while it was on it didn't spew any oil out. -There is no weird noises coming from the engine at all. Valve seals? Piston rings? The rubber on the dipstick is missing a chunk on the very bottom of it, too. There was oil on the boot of spark plug #1 (one closest to the dist) No oil on the rest. Any ideas? -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold

with no ventilatin of the crankcase the normal blowby will cause oil/gasses to escase elsewhere (seals, gaskets, etc)
