Sounds like good advice. Thanks.

Like all mechanical difficulties there is always a good explanation, if you search far enough. In this instance, car sat for a month and the rear seal got dried up. Then two successive long trips to Lake Placid and Boston. Oil was leaking out of the rear seal. Checked the PCV valve and it was stuck closed, even though it was changed recently. Mobil One is very slippery and will find a way out if there is one, and in this case the dry rear seal provided ample opportunity. Changed the PCV and added some High Mileage Mobil One with seal conditioners and "viola" the rear seal stopped leaking, it's moist again and responding positively to the reduced engine case pressure. Skip the $750.00 replacement job!
WooHoo!!!
