Excessive Blowby 850 1995

whoa down boy! i was rplying to klaus who said 'There is no PCV or flame trap'

as new spec is 11-13 bar 159psi is 11 bar so 150 really is actually quite low as the range is 159 -188 (depending a little on altitude of course..)

but i think i agre with you i would look at crank case ventilation issue as it doesnt seem MASSIVELY low..but it could be the whole block is just worn, t here was a post a bit back abotu a block that had gone wavey at the top of the bores, leading to huge blow by but actually ok compression testing...
