hey stovebolters, been doin a lot of drivin and bolt turnin' on the chevy lately, and have come to notice that im experiencing too much pressure in my crankcase.im getting oil spray out the top of the dip stick, and at the bottom of the distributor.Once i put some rtv and a spring to hold down the dipstick to seal the spray, i then got a leak from the crankcase breather where it meets the block.I then installed a pcv on the crankcase breather and ran the hose off of it to the side port on the intake.i thought that this would draw some more air out of the crankcase to relieve pressure, yet i am still getting heavy flow of oil from the bottom of the distributor.It has 2 new gaskets on, and all surfaces are clean.Also, my valve cover does have a breather styled cap just for the record. my next plan on diagnosing this problem is to check my compression on all cylinders.maybe im getting too much blow by? Stuck ring(s)?
If any ya'll have any ideas or tips in sealing up a tough dist. leak or have had a similar problem, i'd be happy to hear! No more oil spray on the back of my cab....i can see the day...
