Oil in the cap
« on: July 31, 2006, 11:32:12 PM »
Hi, recently I have noticed some oil on the oil filler cap and on the end of the hose that goes from the valve cover back to the air intake. Not much just a Little to wet the filter housing top.  Here is a pic

A little oil is completely normal. Its carried there by gasses from the crankcase.

If there becomes a lot of oil, run a compression test on each cylinder.

Thanks, I was worried because I could not figure out where it came from or how did it came out from the pipe
