I did a compression test on my tractor and all 4 cylinders are around the 120 range. When I start up my tractor I would get blow by coming thru the breather on my valve cover and then it would eventually have oil on the valve cover and motor.
I have since piped with flex pipe & pvc from my valve cover to my rear axle so I at least dont have to breathe that stink.
I noticed yesterday that when I removed my oil-air filter the smoking stopped from my valve cover? No blow by at all. I am using a non-detergent oil.
Do I need a thicker oil bath oil?
Can I take off the oil air filter & replace it with a air filter (a junk-yard run to remove a complete air filter system off a car)?
If I take off the oil air filter & replace it with a automotive type air filter, is there any chance of hurting the engine?
