I am getting some oil blowby from my oil filler tube. Not real bad, but it makes the engine compartment messy. I assume I have the old type filler tube baffles in the tube because I have an early AR engine. Would the improved filler tube with steeper baffles work out better? I have also seen a cap that has a tube attached to vent the smoke / blowing oil under the car. Is this a good remedy? I am not concerned about excessive engine wear as a cause of the problem. Compression is 55 lbs or a little better on each cylinder. Spark plugs are not sooty / oily. My A has plenty of pep and I can climb a rather steep, curvy hill near my house in high gear. My neighbor has an old Chevy truck (6) that won't make the hill in 3rd gear. The cap with the vent tube might work. I just don't like gimmicks. What remedy did the old timer use? Thanks, BW
