I have oil coming out of the oil fill breather on the driver's side of the engine. I have done a compression test on all my cylinders and I have one that is only about 60psi and all the others are between 120-140psi. So with those numbers I know I have some blow-by. I don't have the money or time to fix this right now, but I was wondering if:
1. A breather is need on the driver's side valve cover or just a cap.
2. I was thinking of putting a catch can setup in place of the breather cap. I'm have seen these setups with a breather and without. I was wondering what the pros vs cons were to doing this.
Any help with this or any other options would appreciated.
