nah backwards,

worn rings creates pressure in the crank case, this was creating an insane vacuum...

Google says possible intake manifold gasket leak

[Minuki]

Makes sense. My friend had a problem with his Evo popping the dipstick out, worn rings in the end

[180roman]

his vacuum is actually high enough to blow gaskets through

you can hear air getting sucked through the valve cover gasket

yeah that definitely rings when popping dip stick

[180roman]

I'm thinking it is a broken crankcase ventilation valve getting stuck open and having the manifold such air through

ha ha well it is the first time i've ever heard of vacuum like that in the crankcase

[P78]

lol dr diagnosis

maybe ur next line of work?

diagnose friends cars for a few bucks

then move on to random strangers cars

[Minuki]

I only know the sort of basic engine problems, so I have no idea about stuff like that haha. Need to learn some more

[P78]

i know nothing about engines lol

[180roman]

will try and find out tomorrow, the car will be at a friend's shop getting looked at

[Minuki]

i know nothing about engines lol

My dad knows a shit tonne, so I'm trying to learn haha. I should get an engine and rebuild it

[180roman]

my reasoning is also based on the revs dropping down when the oil cap is lifted, because the means that a lot of air is by-passing the AFM

[Minuki]

So can that happen to turbo'd and n/a cars?
