mikey4410 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 possibly unequal air movement inside your engine due to failing pistons/rings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AdamB Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 You still running a PCV mate?Failing that it's down to a cylinder sealing issue as to why there's too much crank case pressure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1990timeismoney Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 Hi mate yeah still using pvc valve could this be blocked it seems to be about two tea spoons of oil but never happened before is there any checks I can do help much appreciated Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) I've seen the PCV give similar problems before, but it does close under boost, meaning you only have the one breather working. It's just a one way check valve, believe you should be able to blow through one end and not the other like. Although if you pull it out, you'll likely have to get a new one as they tend to break quite a lot. I'd also do a compression test just to make sure.

RobSR Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Check the PCV and do a compression test like said. It is a sign of worn rings tho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
