It could be the valve seals or possibly the stock air cleaner is really dirty and causing the engine to pull too much of a vaccum from the valve cover breather sucking up some oil. Just a thought. Not sure what else it could be if the air cleaner is the only thing you changed. |

if it is coming out of your air filter, chances are the problem is with your valves / seating. if there is smoke & light oil discharge coming out of your breather than most probably it's a head gasket. do a compression test and a leak down test on her & let us know what u find. btw: dipstick poppin' out could possibly signify excess base pressure. possible cause would be leaking head gasket as well! |
