Too much pressure in engine after rebuild
 
Hi!

I got an engine job done on my 1973 914 2.0L FI, and since then it has been spitting oil all the way to the air filter through the head breathers and the flashback valve. The sparkplugs are dry, so there is no leak inside the combustion chambers. There seems to be a pressure problem in the heads, but I don't know why. Anyone has a clue?

The PCV valve closes and opens, but I don't know how to tell whether is is working correctly when the engine is running.

Cheers!

JF

Oops! PCV valves are not longer available
 
PCV valves are no longer available for 914s... What should I do if I need to replace mine?
