Default take a guess, please

Anyone want to know what happens when you hook up the pcv hose to where the breather is supposed to be attached on the throttle body and take the breather hose and hook it up to where the pcv hose is supposed to be attached on the intake?

I'll give you a hint....... 1 quart of oil per 100 miles consumption. (at 70 mph).

...direct suction of oil into the intake...I'd do a top end cleaning, you're induction system is probably full of nasty gunk and goo. A can of Seafoam should help, just follow the instructions on the can. It will clean your intake, valves and combustion chambers.

A direct suction of alot of oil into the intake.

Thanks for the recommendation.

it got mixed up when the valve covers were swapped around to their correct position, remember that they were swapped for a Whipple install that never happened, the hoses were all rerouted and the proper hose wasn't present at the time

Yep, Nick, you are correct. The ******** at Doer's Automotive did that. The moron did not install my valve covers to the correct position which created a confusing issue. The dick heads at Doer's had aftermarket hoses so it was confusing.

I am just glad I finally found the oil consumption problem.

I am sure gas prices will finally fall some as demand for oil will be reduced.
