You mean out of the actual breather or the oil cap?

Clean through the breather if it's gunked up?

If you take the oil cap off and its puffy and the egnine note changes, it's an indication that your bottom end is fucked.


If it IS that, just buy a 2 litre zetec engine and put it in , spea to billycabrio on here as he did it fairly cheap with great results
