Yea thats not an oil pressure problem, thats a bad PCV system. Make sure the valve isnt bunged up..(old school term lol) and check for pinches in the vacuum lines.

Definatly sounds like a PCV valve problem. Maybe eliminate it and go with breather.


While were on the topic. ( not to hijack the thread ) is it bad to run a PCV and a breather ?

Remove and replace your PCV valve and the mesh screen below it. If that doesn't fix it, you've got a dead cylinder. Do a compression test.
