This is the route that I have, with the ONLY different that my can is vented and there is a check valve between the vent and the can itself.
Is there anything I can add to help or assist the ringlands? Best way to check/diagnose those? I ordered a new PCV valve.
Good morning. Been trying to figure out lately what is causing my excessive crankcase pressure. So much so, that the gen 2 valve cover breather took a vacation and it blew out almost a quart of oil. I have an oil vented oil catch can that has remained empty for 5k miles. Hoses are clean, no...
