I think I know what it means, but I'm hoping there is a easy solution to this problem. I just finished putting my car back together. I ported the Intake manifold, blocked the EGR, and got a 60mm TB. I drove it for maybe an hour, only getting on it once. I started hearing a ticking noice, but it only ticked when I took off and only for a second. I opened my hood and I had oil all over. I started back home, and when I was about 2 mins from my house, I started to lose compression a little. Anyone know a easy solution, or am I F!^%ed.
 
Clean up th oil mess & then run the car with the hood up, revving up the motor by pulling on the throttle cable & watch to see where the oil is leaking from with a good flashlight.
 
I know its coming out the brether filter. Its burning oil so bad right now. Not out the exhause either. I'm not blowing any smoke out the back, but the smell from the engine is terrible. I can't belive this. My engine took the biggest shit ever in like 1 day. I'm lossing compression really bad now, and my oil pressure is at 75psi at 4500 rpm. Oh well, guess I'm doing my rebuild early. Wish me luck guys, I'm getting this motor out, rebuilt, and in before the Shootout, which is Aug 13th. I think I can do it.
