Ok, have this 1460, which I got pretty cheap and is doing a great job, starts below feezing with out either or being plugged in. Has plenty of power and exhaust is pretty clear except for when I first crack the throttle, or she eats ALOT of really tough beans. The issue is oil coming out of the blowby tube. I wold say it drips out about a quart every 2 hours, maybe even a bit more. The vent on this engine is up on the valve cover, and runs down the side. Is there any other reaon this could be being caused as the engine sure as heck seems like she is tight otherwise. Should I be using straight 30 weight oil, not 15-40? Cold start oil pressure pretty much pegs the gauge, once its been running quite a while it stall has great oil pressure, even at a hot idle. I did notice a little bit of antifreeze up in the engine around one of the injectors.. is not using any noticable amount of coolant. Any advice, thoughts, knowledge?
