pulled my my filter off today because i figured i would change it and it was damp with oil....?
oil had also collected at the bottom of the filter housing and is obviously coming from the tube running to the oil filler cap. this is the pcv valve? what's the purpose of this tube? pressure? anyway, if anyone knows why this is happening...please enlighten me. i'm looking to switch to an idf 44 and i want to keep that carb running right. thanks in advance here's a pic of the setup: (IMG:http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d189/pba110/914/IMG_1553.jpg) |
