I finally got the time and did it. There doesn't seem to be too much of a difference between idle and higher revs. That pretty much deems the blowby theory unlikely. I am beginning to suspect the oil pump, lately the oil light stays on a second or so after starting the motor and it wasn't like this in the past. What could go wrong with an oil pump? hisham 70 sq. > Jim Adney > jadney@vwtype3.org > Pull the breather hose off with the engine running and watch to see what is > coming out.
