I completely missed that possibility.  You know, when your job takes away
any chance of being lighthearted on a Friday afternoon at 2:25, it¹s time to
find another professionŠ  I should go home and work on getting my car ready
for the Rally!

        Do you have a PVC valve?  I recall that PVC helps reduce or
     eliminate
        pressure i
        nside the engine, and if it's removed or blocked, you can get oil
     spray
        from bre
        athers.

          Hi Guys, does anyone have any ideas how to stop my engine from
        blowing
          oil out of the breathers on the valve covers.  The engine was
     just
          rebuilt and now has aluminum valve covers without any baffles
     by the
          openings for the breathers.  I'm getting a spray of oil out of
     the
          breathers and sometimes they actual come off when i push it
     hard.
          These are the twist-on type of breathers,
