hey i couldnt figured out where my oil was going until one day i noticed i had a bad pcv valve. it was a few weeks ago i bought a new one and put it in. the exact one for my car.

i seafoamed my engine today but when i took of the tube to the pcv there was oil on the inside of it, AGAIN. i just changed the **** thing why is it sucking oil again? could it be something else causing this or should i just buy another one and keep an eye one it?

could be blow by on the rings. so oil in the intake. do a compression test see what you come up with to verify.
I would hand clean the entire intake, and your imrc's. Thats me though.

i suggest getting a filter... they are like $20.00 off jegs. this is common in many ford modular motors. PCV leaks into the intake system (are we talking about the same tube here, amigo?)

one day i was giving somebody a jump and i noticed my engine making a weird noise i never before heard. i pulled out the pcv valve and im not sure how to describe it but it was like fluttering or opening and closing really quickly. i dont understand whats going on here.

anyone have ANY ideas?

this weekend i am going to do a compression test and find a filter like chris said but this is very frustrating please help

Might want to think about a Air/Oil Seperator in the pcv line to keep oil out of your intake.
