Re: [AMC-list] oil coming out of dipstick

[Greg Taylor <amundaza@xxxxxxxxx>]

Todd,
I have been really pleased with it, since it nearly STOPPED the oil burning issue with my parent's 'new to them' Roadtrek RV.
 
I had an extra one that Emil had sent me, specifically for the AMC/Jeep V8 system, which I originally installed on the PT Cruiser.  It had so much vacuum that my main seals started squealing like a stuck pig.  One quick call to Emil at www.envalve.com and I found out that I needed a different vacuum rate En Valve for the PT.  I now have that installed and it's MUCH better (still an occasional minute squeal ... NO squeal on the Dodge 318 setup).
 
By the way guys, since this En Valve puts everything under vacuum, it eliminates oil leaks at the main seals and valve covers.

Sincerely, 
Greg Taylor :) <><

Greg,

Thanks for sharing this information.  I looked at this product several years ago, and I wondered how well it really worked.  It sounds like it's time to try one.

I would recommend replacing the PCV valve with the unit from www.envalve.com and plugging off ALL other breather ports. The En Valve is designed to create a serious vacuum inside the crankcase, nearly eliminating blow-by. It basically sucks the rings to the cylinder wall better, to reduce blow-by.

I recently installed on the 46,000 mile 318 in my parents' "new" RV that was burning 1-2 qts of oil in 450 miles. It is now almost down to zero oil burning.

With the EN valve installed and all else plugged off, you can pull the dip stick tube and FEEL the vacuum through the tube ... this would eliminate the pressure build-up you're seeing on your engine, due to blow-by.

I have since installed one on my PT Cruiser and picked up a couple more for my stroker 304 and for the 360 in my buddy's GW.

Check out their website at www.envalve.com and talk to Emil. He's fantastic to deal with ... GREAT customer service.

Sincerely,
Greg Taylor :) <><
