Default oil blow out IO-360

No, remember on a compression check your valves are closed, thus why I
suggested the valve wobble test. Not saying the guide is cracked, but it or
they could be worn. I was just trying to keep the symptom (excess oil out
the breather) separated from the cause (unknown) and relate what I had
discovered.


If it were caused by a valve problem though would the oil still come
out the breather? My engine seems extreamly clean of oil. I can see oil
dripping from the breather.
