So last winner as my truck found its last few days running it was blowing oil out of I'd say everywhere.... Theres not a dry spot under my hood. It blew the dip stick out an soaked my k&n filter.
So I've checked my PCV. An it slides up an down freely.. as its well oiled... My summer project is to get this thing workin again. So anybody got any good ideas on to what I should look into? I'll probably end up pullin the whole top half off the motor anyways... But I need to figure out whats causing this pressure build up.

Engine model? Mileage? Condition that this started? What are we working with here?

Oh sorry... wasnt thinkin.... Its an 84, with the 22r motor.
The body has somewhere around 180k... A 16yr old throw this motor in before I bought it... Ive had it for about 3 yrs now.
Started out just a small oil leak... then started gettin bad, an looked like it was leakin from the distributer. Pretty sure it was coming up outta the dip stick already at higher rpms. I just hadnt noticed that yet. At the end of its life last winter it would blow out 3qts of oil in about a 30mile trip. An since I had thrown all my money into finishin up my car I spent all my time with that and just limped the yota along for about a week. So much oil got in the engine bay it shorted out 2 alternators in that week. The old spot thats dry is over on the far side of the brake master cylinder the battery and the radiator. Everything else has oil. Including the air intake and air filter.

Sounds like my old engine. Blowby from a possible cracked ring. Creates to much crankcase pressure and any oil would get pushed out of crankcase breather at the front of valve cover. PCV was good(back of valve cover) but it just had blowby like a diesel. So I had to put a hose down the side of the block and keep the oil topped off.

You may want to check oil pressure as well. But do a compression test. Wet and dry.

Ill have too look into gettin me a pressure tester... or rent one maybe....
Since the trucks just sittin im lookin to fix it good... along with this not being the only thing I gotta fix on her..
