need help- oil in breather & air/fuel problems
okay first i have oil coming out of my breather cap (carb engine) so i installed pvc in valve cover, still a little oil in breather.
next bought air/fuel meter from fast. can anyone give me a ideal of what i should be running @ idle and @ w.o.t and is jetting enough or should other things be consider into the adjusting? Thanks alot guys! |

Oil in the breather is likely blowby. Worn engine or maybe just stuck rings. Has the motor sat for a while?

Normally aspirated I'd be shooting for 12.8 to 13.0:1 at WOT. A/F at idle will be dictated by other factors such as curb idle setting, corner idle adjustment, vacuum level, power valve setting, etc. Try to get your idle to 14.7:1 or higher. Don't worry about it being too lean at idle; the engine isn't under any load at idle so there's no fear of damaging the engine. Its not uncommon to see a car idling at 17:1 or more. The only effect of doing so is increased NOx emissions and somewhat higher engine temps.
