blow by from CCV ?

When you remove the return hose from the CCV going to the intake tube, how much smoke should there be at idle?

None, some, a decent amount?

I pulled the intake while setting up my WW install, and when I started the truck there was some smoke coming out of there.

Thanks

Keith

Smoke is normal during idle. It shouldn't be a cloud but you should see a nice mist.

cool, thanks I was a little worried. I have been doing oil analysis for the past 20k miles with near perfect results so did not think there would be any major motor problems.
