[B]How much compression is your car pulling? Usually when you take an oil breather off while the vehicle is running and you can see a misty steam (oil) blowing out your rings are bad. Did you do a compression test or do you just think the compression is good?

As everyone has said when the driveability problems stop your car should run tons better.

We took the breather cap off while idling and even revved it up to 3800, no steam or oil splash whatsoever. My intake charge was literaly sucking oil out of my valve covers like a straw...I had no idea it made THAT much suction....this tells me that the potential IS there, I just have to tap it.
My PCV is in the back of my lower intake and now gets direct vaccum, its not on that stupid tree they send you...my car also has that funky intake elbow so the setup might be different.
Cam, the car reads no codes and the check engine light never came on.
GP, thanks for the info and ideas on the valve covers but I decided not to get them. These cheap *** ones look like **** but seem to be working well. My car looks stock anyway so the dirty motor with the ugly valve covers kinda works...might make people underestimate me or something.
