bryaner Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Hi all The last few months our puma started using lots of oil (0.5L per 500 miles) No blue smoke out the back and no leaks i.e on drive , so I am starting to think breather probs. I got under it this eve and I see oil being pushed out via the dipstick, some on the exhaust side of the block, and the top of the rocker cover is moist around the filler cap. Otherwise she is running fine, can anyone send me in the right direction please Cheers Bryan 1.4 btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintalkin Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 sounds like the PCV Valve or a pipe is blocked (Positive Crankcase Ventilation)this allows the crankcase to vent and if it gets blocked causes back pressure in the engine.
