Gang,

I have completely cleaned out my flame trap as well as the plastic oil separator but I am still getting oil leaks at the rear distributor seal and now the front crank seal.

As a side note, all of the engine seals, crank, cam distributor, etc have been replaced not more than 5K miles ago.

anything else I should be looking at? It seems like I have way too much crankcase pressure to be forcing oil out the seals. Is the current system inadequate? Can I add additional PCV hoses anywhere?

Replacing that crank seal was a major PITA... I'd hate to have to do it again.

ANy thoughts?

Thanks.

Mike
