She's gone from blow to suck... 200 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be Luke Healey on  Tue Oct 16 07:40 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Well, today at noon, I started the 245, and I see I was wrong in my initial diagnosis..

There is not pressure buildup in the crankcase, but vaccuum.

There is a fairly strong vaccum at the oil filler cap and the dipstick.

So I guess my flametrap area must be free of debris and I can rule that out.

Now, what is the common cause of crankcase vaccum?? bad rings? or what?

(hint: I really do not want to have to rebuild my engine)
