scared meself!!!

Snarky?

SNARKY - yep, I find your demeanor very abrasive.

That's a convenient way for you to try to portray my answer Tom, especially when what you're asking me now has ONCE AGAIN been changed from what you were asking before.

Nope. I've asked you the same question 3 times now. How is the end result of what I've done different from what I originally proposed? Venting to atmosphere should have the same effect on crank case pressure as venting to the combustion chamber in my mind. I'm just curious as to why you feel it's different.

When you conveniently change your questions like that, OF COURSE the previous answer isn't going to apply to the current question, but resorting to such things to try to direct attention away from your own confusion only makes you appear to be the person picking at scabs from earlier discussions.

T'wasn't confused. Merely asking your opinion since you have positioned yourself as the ultimate authority on the subject.

Once again though, your original "proposed" approach didn't include the vent-to-atmosphere-filter being used in your current solution...so it simply isn't the same setup you keep telling yourself it is...

I never said it was the same solution. I said it was a different approach to the same result.

Let me explain myself one more time so that you don't have to search through hundreds of posts looking for the perfect quote.

I still feel that a crossover tube would be a means of removing one variable from the problem we experience with oil consumption. I don't feel that it is the source of all of the issue but it's easy enough to install one to find out ... except that I didn't think it through in regard to drilling the hole in the valve cover without introducing metal shavings into the crank case. That's the reason that I went with the vent filter temporarily. It's just not worth removing the valve cover at this point in time (I will however drill a hole in Boy's valve cover since it's already off). This is absolutely a Research & Development (R&D) scenario so changes to the concept are not only acceptable, they are expected.

When I've already provided you with your answer(s), there is no need for me to explain myself once again.

At this point, the only thing that remains a mystery is whether you're just trolling me to try to get me to waste more time answering the same questions...or whether you REALLY haven't understood the answers you've already been provided with.

Either way, I simply don't care about your project any more. Good luck.

Nah, I'm not tolling you. I honestly did want your opinion on why you feel that the end product yields different results from what I had originally planned. That is the only question that remains unanswered.

I agree that it may be OBE anyway since my oil consumption is all over the place right now. One tank of gas it doesn't use any, the next it'll use a 1/2 quart (it doesn't help that there are 2 different drivers so driving styles may have a lot to do with it).

That's the thing Tom, that question DOESN'T remain because it's already been answered...more than once.

So if we're to take it as your word that you're not trolling me, the only possibility that remains is that you haven't understood the answer that has ALREADY been provided.

Please humor me then & answer the question again: How does venting to the atmosphere differ from venting to the combustion chamber IRT oil consumption? I've re-read the thread and can't seem to find it.

I've re-read the thread and can't seem to find it.

I wonder why?

You see, once again you're asking a question about something different than what your original project outlined.

The question you SHOULD be asking is why you keep trying to change the subject, and the person you should be asking is yourself.

I can explain that to you, but I can't understand it for you (and Zeus apparently) too.

You're eventually gonna have to sit down and admit it to yourself Trek...

You are just that much mentally superior to everyone you come in contact with.
Whether it be here on the forums, at work, rest, or play...I'm sure you've noticed it, but are far too humble to admit it, even to yourself.

You are to be commended...

Troll-ekkie,

Apparently I've been giving you more credit than you deserve. I erroneously assumed that since you'd vectored yourself so intimately into the subject that you might have some valuable insight. On that point I was embarrasingly wrong (yes, I can admit it). It's now obvious that you neither have the knowlege base or the social skills to continue the conversation in an adult manner. You should consider your juvenile diatribe an embarrasing mental deficiency rather than a means of obtaining your perverted jollies. I feel sorry for you & unlike the whore jockey, I hope I never meet you face to face.

Don't put words in my mouth or your demithoughts in my head.
