They will always generate a oil mist. If the oil level is too high or the breather is plugged the engine will blow oil.
Not all dip sticks are the same either, be sure you reference with 5 quarts and a filter.

Anyone know where I can get a PCV conversion? I want to eliminate the road draft tube and go to a PCV.

THanks,

Greg
