What could have happened here??? Do i have a cracked head??? Did I blow a seal??? I hear a hist coming from around the sprockets but cant see what could be the problem GSX is stopped i wont drive it. But sure need help in order to trouble shoot it and fix it ASAP. Thank You Guys I need all the help possible Thanks.

Probably your PCV valve or brether valve. Make sure you still have a PCV valve, and it has a hose on it. Just run the hose from the PCV and breather valve pointing at the ground. Make sure you plug the places where they originally went. Id just put it back to stock first...see if that fixes it.

Gosh I feel greatful to have you guys I have posted this same ad in here somewhere else and I got basicaly the same deal. I eliminated the PCV and plugged where it went, then where the breather went to the intake I eliminated it too and took a Fuel filter (transparent) and basically put breather and pcv together i didnt even noticed this Geez i feel so STUPID!? man Thank You. Do you think its only that and not something major??? i mean I guess I'll need another valve cover gasket (oh boy not again!)

Couldve blown out your gasket. I did the exact same thing, PCV went bad got clogged. Keep everything stock if you dont know what youre doing....Its ok to use a fuel filter on the BREATHER line, and run that the stock way. But the PCV valve just leave it alone unless you know what youre doing.

I dont think using a straight fitting really benefits it that much either. Mainly for use in race cars.

Sweet I am now printing as i type and will perform all of this after work tomorrow Wish me luck and I guess I do need another valve cover gasket uh!

If you do replace your valve cover gasket MAKE SURE that you tighten the bolts to the specified torque. If you do not , you will ruin the gasket...
