Default Re: Rhythmic smoke puffing out of oil input breather cap

No, the question about the PCV was a question on why the PVC one way valve was needed. Answers made sense, to prevent backfire igniting fumes in crank case. My pcv was not working when testing to eliminate this problem so I hooked up vacuum hose direct to vac port w/o pcv for test ride. Replaced w new pcv the next day. These engines were designed w no pcv in mind & running w just draft tube which I tested as well shouldn’t let the crankcase smoke come out the oil input neck unless draft tube is clogged. I cleaned draft tube & if I plug the oil input the Rhythmic puff puff puff comes out the draft tube. Pretty sure shouldn’t come out in that way from either?
