I'm curious why they chose to ignore them?! They literally answered every question around that post. :confused: :confused:

My take on that particular question was first they had no idea what the question was, and their thought process was more of a dry sump oil tank breather tank, like a Moroso unit that vents to the atmosphere.

Then i could understand their thought process about why the oil is in fact being drawn by vacuum into the intake hose and ultimately dispersed in the manifold.
I believe their answer was that the oil level in the crankcase was too high to begin with, and ultimately that may be the reason for the oil in the intake.

Anybody try running a quart low in the pan? And see if the oil is still there in the intake.

It still peeves me off how they completely ignored it. They didn't even humor us with a simple reply.
