1. Misting oil from the breather cap... (score: 1): Author: "Andrew B. Lundgren" <lundgren@byu.net>; Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2001 20:38:44 -0700 (MST); I have a '77 18V engine in my '70 B. Unknown miles on the engine, great oil pressure (70lbs all the time hot or cold.) I have a non-crossover AL head with an AL valve cover.

2. Re: Misting oil from the breather cap... (score: 1): Author: REasterby@aol.com; Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2001 08:29:22 EST; This is a sign off compression "blow-by". Take a compression test and see if you can identify the cylinder that is losing compression; thus allowing the crankcase to fill with the higher pressure and; /html/mgs/2001-03/msg01090.html (7,351 bytes)

Lundgren" <lundgren@byu.net>; Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2001 10:35:28 -0700 (MST); So what does a re-bore and new rings usually cost?

(score: 1): Author: Max Heim <mvheim@studiolimage.com>; Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2001 10:41:18 -0800; I agree that you need to ascertain the source of this crankcase pressure. Just blocking off the vent hole is not going to solve the underlying problem. I would also study the crankcase breather syste; /html/mgs/2001-03/msg01108.html (8,165 bytes)

(score: 1): Author: Charley & Peggy Robinson <ccrobins@ktc.com>; Date: Sat, 24 Mar 2001 14:24:53 -0800; Hi Andrew, Check to see if there are gases blowing out of the tappet cover vent when the engine is running. That's where the piston/ring blowby manifests itself. If there's no pressure there, or just; /html/mgs/2001-03/msg01132.html (7,716 bytes)

I will do it. I have a compression tester already as well. I would have done it already, but my car is at a body shop, and I am on what is turning into; /html/mgs/2001-03/msg01135.html (8,598 bytes)
