Just another winter day in paradise, a light breeze and cloudy.
How`s things in Winterpeg Grant?
The plow truck dumped potash all over our highway John, it turned into a salty, corrosive paste.
Is it sunny in BC Ian?
What causes the oil to blow out of your dipstick tube Perry?

I agree with Morris. Your Crankcase is not vented. Good luck.

I'll be changing the pcv again along with adding another ring clamp to the piece of rubber fuel line that I put on the end of the dipstick tube to slow down the oil loss. There was a o ring where the tube goes into the block but it was dried and broken up last time so I put 2 new o rings on the tube, put a piece of rubber fuel line on the dipstick tube where it goes into the block and bolted on the tube followed by pushing down the fuel line and tightening the clamp. Yesterday and today were the first time it went on a full speed highway at these cold temps -15/21wc. This thing doesn't blow any smoke out the tailpipe and theres very little blowby.

This didn`t sound good, I`m glad it`s a simple, cheap fix.

Got my January edition of Street Rodder and it has the calendar in it, the cover has a really wild looking 52 Henry J and it ends with a 30 model A coupe with a supercharged Ardun headed flathead. The calendar is sponsored by Lokar so its probably on their website.

It was a mostly sunny day here, but it never warmed up as our high was only 6 today.

Perry could it be condensation build up, then froze in a part of the positive cranocase ventilation system?
Maybe a low spot in a hose where it pooled?
