  10. Missing oil..help

    in Engine Tech And Modification

    Posted

    I had an HD truck with a 6.0 with mystery oil consumption. The oil seemed to form a mist, get sucked up the pcv tube(or whatever its called since there's no pcv valve) it would hit the back of the intake, condense and fill the back of the intake with oil. Once it was full enough, it would run down the back 2 cylinders, and burn(usually on start up). I put a PCV style valve cover off an older LS(99-02?) and that seemed to severely limit how much oil made it to the intake, and the oil consumption went way down.

    Great info everyone..whats the valve cover u used ? Like a ls1 car one ?
