oil in airfilter
I was getting oil in my airfilter. I swapped my airfilter for a fram airhog and hate to see it get all nasty from the oil.
Anyone got a fix for it? I did swap the PCV valve some time back and haven't noticed if it fixed the problem. I rinsed out the crankcase breather but I should have just swapped it with a new one, would this do it?

The breather tube from the driver side I believe is the one that goes to the air filter. The one from the PCV valve goes after the filter directly into the throttle body. So the breather tube from the driver's side can be modified with a filter. You can either intall an inline filter in the breather tube that will cut back on some of the oil residue that is getting to the filter, or you can just install a breather filter in place of the breather tube right on the valve cover. If you check out the pictures in my gallery, you can see the red filter on the valve cover. It is sitting at a 90 degree angle instead of straight up, but it keeps the oil from going into the filter.
I have a filter inline with my hose from the valve cover on the drivers side. It's called a crankcase filter. Sticks in a gromet in the valve cover and a hose runs from it to the filter box. It has filter media in it but I don't know if I just need a new one.
