Okay so I think I am getting some Crankcase pressure.. Because the other night I was out having a few spirited burns with my mate in his KPro'd DC5 as over all winter we have been having banter as on who's was quicker. But any besides the point we had, had a fair few digs during the night, and at the end of it I went to head home with my brother who was in his EK4 I give it a little bit past his window and all of a sudden smoke came from the engine bay - lots of it. Pulled up and the dipstick had been pushed out of where it should be. And oil was accross my whole bay - yes it took a while to clean haha.
But I know for a fact it isn't because I have to much oil in there also I do know that the dipstick was pushed in properly.
So the last thing it could be is P crankcase pressure. So I took the valve out which goes into the inlet behind the head. As it should rattle. It vaguely rattled but after a good ole clean it rattled a lot more freely. And I did the blow/suck test one way and all was good! Now if this isn't the problem, as I have not driven it yet. Does anyone else have any ideas?
Btw my engine is a built B16 with a stroker Kit. It's mapped at 220 by romain at Eurospec so it's not your standard engine! Any ideas/help would be great!
Thanks!
