The PCV valve is brand new, and rattles nicely when shook. I replaced it when I first saw it was seeping oil to see if that would fix it. While running, the hose from the carb has a nice vacuum on the PCV. I heard you mention blow by, but said it was usually in older motors. My motor was a crate from the Chevrolet dealership and has less than 3k miles on it.
It still smokes white and wants to turn over for a few seconds when hot. When it finally does crank, for about 15 seconds it wants to sort of choke itself out and sometimes shut off if I don't keep gas to it. After that though it runs like a dream. Any suggestions of something I'm missing, overlooking, or haven't checked yet?
