[Tommy V]

Have any of u guys running the procharger,had the oil dipstick push up out of yhr stick.Mine did today doing a data log and thought i blew my shit up,smoke everywhere.I hooked my pvc back up the way it was from procharger.Dont know why it has so much pressure.

Are you running breathers out of your valve covers?

 

[Tommy V]

No i was but put the pvc back to the way it was from procharger,when the oil stick lifted shot oil all over the place.

Well, don't do that lol! Put the breathers back on.

Yea but i ran it like that for a year with no problems.This might not be good.

Thats crazy, I bet that scared the crap out of you lol, I know it would me.

I run a catch can in my PCV I am sure that just restricts it more. Haven't had any issues yet though.

No actually a catch can is the way to go.The pc way of running the pvc leaves openings for alot of problems,especially when u get to 11to 12 psi.Also the stock pvc valve on the mustang was not designed for super charger applications.Running breathers does relieve crankcase pressure but does not remove all the crankcase gases and blowby.I am going to use the upr can and i think it will hel. with some of the problems i am havjng.Having a good strong vaccum pulljng on the pvc valve at start up and idle makes start ups alot smoother and the the way the pvc system is ran now their is no vaccum at all at idle.Btw yes it was scary thought i blew my shit up lol.
