I thought i had fixed it once, but it still hasn't improved. My oil is still being shoved out of my pvc valve and vent tube on my 95 2.2 ohv. It started about a week after the shop put a head gasket on my car. Ived replaced the pvc valve, and even put a apc filter on my vent tube. i had someone tell my that the apc intake could be causing the problem, but i dunno. if ne one was ne suggestions, ill try ne thing at this point, just post em. and it only does it when im driving, i can let it set for 30 mins n my driveway, and it seems to be just fine, till i drive it around the block. then its coming outta my exhaust and is all over my engine.

The PCV usually only pushes oil out when the oil is overfilled. Do a complete oil change and put the proper amount of oil in.
The head gasket job wasn't done correctly. Your getting compression into the oil I'd bet.
Do a compression test and post your readings.
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.
ive been meaning to get a compression tester, cause thats what i was thinkin too. If the headgasket was done wrong, is it simply solved as re-doing the job, or is it gonna be more complicated than that?
ill get a tester tomorrow and ill post my findings tomorrow nite after work.

Well that depends on what you find when you do a comp test. You can try to re-torque the head but that doesn't always work. Did they true the head before the new gasket went on?

Take it back to the shop that did the work, they could have messed something up.

to my knowledge, they didn't true the head nor did they check it. all they did was take the old one off and put the new one on and threw everything back together. and then charged me $500 using the parts i bought from my work. the only reason why i even took it to the shop was that i work two jobs and didn't have time to do at the time. Im not gonna take it back to the shop, ill just take a well needed day off and fix the problem my self.

Live and learn eh, but it sounds like blow back, compression is getting where it shouldn’t.
=(
It's always a good idea to get an aluminum head checked if you take it off, I'm surprised the shop didn't insist on checking it. Why was the head done? Do a compression check and see what readings you get. You can also look over the engine and make sure that everything is hooked up right.

I'm very surprised you dont have antifreeze in your oil after that kind of a hack job. Sorry to hear about it.
