Went to change the plugs and couldn't help but notice pools and pool of oil under the big cover that hides the plugs and wires. Cleaned it up and put a new rubber gasket on the oil cap(strong evidence of seepage from there). More oil after 2 hour drive. Squeezed down the tongs on the oil cap. Still oil....(1)New cap????...(2)will it make a difference?.....(3)why so much pressure there??....
(4) bigger problem??(motor strong...compression gasses blowing by valves and guides?)....Thanks .....Colt....1995 Turbowagon 90K
