I have recently experienced the same symptoms relating to high crankcase pressure on my '93 854. Just yesterday I pulled apart the flame trap and related equipment to investigate and clean. I ended up removing the whole plastic elbow, flame trap and small hose to vacuum tower for a thorough cleaning outside the car. The flame trap was completely blocked with oily goo and sludge, as well as the rubber elbow and breather tube. a pipe cleaner rig, some paper towels and Q-tips did the job. I also recently replaced the gasket on the oil filler cap. Hopefully these fixes will do the job...
