No noticeable oil leak (new pan) or oil in bilge, not checked spark plugs yet but boat runs fine. lots power and oil press seems ok (65 psi at top end speed). some history, about 8 months ago changed leaky manifolds as I had water in oil tx laurie ------------- laurie Replies: Posted By: laurie Date Posted: July-17-2011 at 5:06pm could it be the pcv valve has anybody had probs with this tx ------------- laurie Posted By: Whitfield Date Posted: July-18-2011 at 8:30am Compression test? Follow up with a leak down test if compression test comes up low. Also look for cokeing on the spark plugs (as sign of burning oil). ------------- Michael ....     I'm the black sheep ~ 1984 Dixie 299 Super Skier (350 Chev PCM / counter rotation / Velvet drive) Open Bow.

Did you see if it's venting on the valve covers? sounds to me as some broken rings. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=2095" rel="nofollow - 1980 Ski Nautique Commander 351W
