This things runs like a champ..........damn near burn the tires(LOL) BUT ANYWAY NO real antifreeze other than a real small thermstat housing, 5 k never had to fill it.

drained oil, no water

pvc sucks like its suppose to BUT the front hose on the valve cover blows,all the time. After it warms up it looks like steam)does not taste of antifrezze) no extra fluids in my crankcase no where.

I have a weber, the pvc is hooked down low ...........I am sure that has nothing to do with it


The only only moisture under my cap appears to be normal for a really wet/damp winter. Nothing that I have never seen before.

I thought this hose was suppose to to suck not blow, its the one on the front that goes to the webber filter /housing.

I am sure this is simple,however I do know I have slight valve seal leak at warmup but there is no way this is related.

You mean the one that is just curled over behind the fill cap? Mine was originally supposed to hook back into my weber, but it would fall off if the going got bumpy.

I just let it droop and drip onto the top of my leaf spring, when it drips. Every morning I have about two drops of moisture. The only difference I see between letting it hook up to the weber is that i dont burn the excess oil off through my engine, but seeing as ive never had oil come out at any rate, it hasnt bugged me.
 
I did they same for a while but now I want it hooked up.

There is no way in hell it could be blow by right being it has that plate/gasket under the valve cover?

I did have oil breifly, I might still have I dont know? I dont see anything showing me there is now
 
So I remember!

Now, the red arrow pointing to the red circle is the hole that you could plug or use the supplied fitting (green arrow) to hook up your pvc to and thats where i put mine. (im 95% positive.)

On mine it had a hole in the lower half of the airfilter housing. in that hole was a plastic 90 deg elbow bolted on that i hooked the pcv hose to.

it looked like weber made it that way.
