Re: Smoke from breather and dipstick

Make sure the PCV valve is not stuck closed. You should be able to hear it rattle when you shake it. When engine is running at idle, you should have good suction at the PCV valve. Smoke is from blow by not properly being evacuated. If your PCV valve is operating normally and you have blow by, I am afraid your problems are deeper in the engine.
