I have a new 91 cyclone engine with less than 10k miles. I am using an AFC II with 680cc injectors, t3/t4 boosting 14psi max. Recently, and mostly after boosting, the oil meter stick is poping out about 4 inches. The meter head is kinda loose, not that tight on the tube. My friends told me that eventhough it is loose, it shouldnt come out. I already changed the PVC valve and hose and the problem persist.
Is this a normal behavior and I should make the oil meter stick tight on the tube. Notice that it does spills out oil. Also, I am not using a exhaust, I have a straight thru empty exhaust...
Can anyone help me with this please... I would appreciate any answer
 
You better, I haven't hit you with a good oldman joke in about 3 days now. :p
Trying to get all my stuff in order. Sold my car, trying to get my VSS fixed, AC fully removed, plus those other cars I'm working on. Not to mention I have a pretty big test tomorrow... but none of this has anything to do with compression tests or valves not seating so I better shaddup :D
