Hey Guys,
I have oil coming out of both valve cover holes. Passenger valve cover has a pvc valve -hose to a catch can. oil is coming from the grommet area of the PVC. The catch can has hot water in it. The driver side has a oil cap on it. Oil is pressurizing out around the cap. Oil is spraying all over the back of the engine bay coming out of both holes. Oil pan had condensation all over it after shake down drive. My first set up was breather filters in both valve cover holes. Oil comes out in idle Ran car hard up and down a private airplane runway. Car felt strong and just installed new C5 brakes and t56. Please help me |

It sounds like the valve covers are over pressurizing, which usually means you are likely getting exhaust blowby the valves. Sounds like possible head gaskets, and/or more likely valve problems. Since it is both sides, it is possible they are just misadjusted...let's hope so. How does your oil level check stick look? Any water there? Pull the valve covers and check all the valves and springs. Look for any small broken spring parts. Check for brown oily watery residue in oil. You may need to do an oil change to discover this. Catch the oil in a big bowl or something so you can see if there are any broken metal bits. good luck |
