not for nothin jim but i think there is more of a demand for the dc reg than the ac ones. just seems that way. those things are always bad. southern automotive makes brand new replacements. i have the part # written down somewhere. i remember looking them up for a price and i think they were...
yes munch but i think he said he checked the breather and it wasnt clogged. all that psi has to go somewhere. dipstick in place and it should go out the breather and into the intake through the hose. dipstick out and it goes out the tube. try clamping off the rubber hose from the breather to the...
with both pistons moving up and down together the crankcase is going to build pressure like a compressor. basically the volume of both cylinders and its being forced with all the energy of the engine running. you pull that dipstick out on an 002 its no joke. oil and pressure is blowing out like...
i am just guessing here but i really dont think there could be enough blowby to make 2qts of oil come out the breather in a few min, especially if you have good compression. why would there be that much oil up there right next to the breather to even be pushed out by the pressure. i could see it...
i think if that were true the pistons would not stay even as the crankshaft is rotated around. atleast it looks that way in the pics.
dangier, when the engine is running did you notice if the oil psi gauge was pegged?
Yes there is an oil pressure regulator behind the flywheel i believe. Just a spring and ball. If ball is stuck then there could be over psi on the oil system. With excessive oil flow and the natural crankcase psi if the 002 it could maybe make things look really bad and more like a bliwby...
