Auto Rx/blowby?
I have a 1983 F150 (300, I6). It has 84000 original miles. I put a new clutch in about four months back. The vehicle has been jerking a lot. I thought the clutch was slipping. Apparently, the vehicle was trying to die out because of a lack of air. I have only put about 2000 miles on this vehicle. I put a new air filter in it when I purchased it. After 2000 miles, the air filter was very oily as was the breather element filter. There also seems to be a lot of moisture in the breather element filter. I do not drive this vehicle a lot, and when I do, it is short distances. I did not notice a lot of blowby when I purchased the vehicle. I am about 600 miles into the first cycle of an Auto Rx treatment. Would this have anything to do with the blowby?
What can I do to cure this excessive blowby? The PCV valve appears to be working. Any suggestions?
