I puked enough oil out of it that the oil pressure started to drop so I shut it down and called AAA. The guy was pissed because it left oil all over the bed. Tow trucks should be oily!
I tried rearranging the crankcase ventilation everyway I can think of. This time I put an early oil filler on so there was no PC valve at all. I routed it and the heads to a puke bottle. It was full in 5 miles (probably a pint) plus it overflowed all over the engine compartment, a puddle on the street and the afore mentioned oil on the tow truck. I haven't checked the sump yet. I looks like I built a pretty efficient oil pump. It appears there must be a ton of blowby. The was a lot of crankcase gases coming out of the vent in the puke bottle. It was blowing enough at idle that I couldn't seal it with my hand. Anyway, it's coming apart again. It looks like next Saturday's light off party will be an autopsy party. I can hardly wait to see what the cylinders and rings look like. We'll get a look on Saturday. Dave |
