Bronco script valve cover oil consumption

[ba123]

Totally agree. You need to make sure that absolutely no more oil gets into the intake and don't reconnect the PCV until you're sure. Once the cylinders are clean, you can try connecting but I'd only do so if absolutely minimal oil (preferably none) getting into the catch can.

I say "preferably none", because the catch can is really only there if you can't figure out the real problem.

Meaning let it be open to the air. Disconnect the PCV from the carb. Plug the carb....Just let the air from the blow by exit into the air........I ran my Samurai 1.3L that way for a couple years. I just capped off the intake port and put a filter on the PCV side and let it vent into the air. Yes I got some oil smell but that engine had major blow by.

The suggestion is just a temp solution to keep oil out of the cylinders so the rings can clean up. The catch can will catch any oil spray. Then put the factory covers on and hook the PCV system back up with clean catch can and see how it does, That's what I would do........

Got it! Good call, I'll do that until I get the other covers swapped on.
