Yeah, I have been religiously changing my PCV with every oil change at 3000 mile intervals. My oil still burns out like crazy.

So, does anyone have, or know of a good step by step for cleaning the EGR valve? I really would like to fix this, as it is somewhat scary and also somewhat expensive to be feeding so many quarts of synth on a regular basis. I would like to try this method and also the PCV breather solution. And what is the throttle body and how do I clean that?

Also, what is the preferred brand of PCV? I have used Deutsch and FRAM. Both with the same results.

And that gets me thinking. How tight should the tube clamp be on the top end of the PCV valve. Mine is pretty loose. Should I try a zip tie around that tube? Maybe I am blowing some oil out there???
