Re: Too Much Crankcase Pressure? 700 1988

posted by  someone claiming to be David Jeff on  Sun Dec 3 09:40 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Ed, thanks for your input. I have not actually measured the crankcase pressure. It fails the jiggle test, but, it is the plastic cap. When the engine is warm and running, I do get some smoke out of the dipstick tube when I remove the dipstick.

The reason I have hesitated replacing the real seal is I have read on the brickboard that I really need to solve the excessive crankcase pressure before I replace the seal or I'm just wasting my time.
