oil blowby

[curtisbyrne]

[FONT="Arial Black"]i have oil coming out of the breather tube. with the hood on it leaves the engine compartment foggy so i would say its far from moderate blow by. oil level is correct and it doesnt seem to have gas in it but i could be wrong. i will try an oil change when i can and see if this does anything.

a compression test will tell a lot. you can also put compressed air to one of the spark plug holes and see if you can hear air flow at the oil dipstick tube

and if i do hear air in the dipstick tube?

Then you have air slipping by the piston into the crank case. Bad rings and worn piston and cylinder wall.

I have had some luck using a crankcase flush and a bottle of Lucas oil treatment.

you need a leak down tester harbor freight very cheap most motors you will hear blow by with compressed air. a leak down tester will tell you exactly how bad it is. very easy to use and no guess work maybe as simple as a stuck ring from our wonderful ethanol.
