Really good vacuum on oil filler cap, always has been to be fair. No smoke from dipstick tube and there wasn’t before I replaced the PCV box and associated plumbing. I replaced it as the car has over 220k and thought it was worth doing before any nasties caught me out.
Did a compression test too, 155,160,160,160 & 165 dry, 170,170,170,175 & 170 with a slug of oil.
Probably just a weak dipstick seal. The top snapped off the other day too so got a new twin seal version on its way. Hopefully that’ll see me right.
Thanks for everyone’s input. Appreciated.
