Oil coming out of dipstick?
Hey guys. I've been looking around and found a few threads on oil coming out the top of the dipstick. But they are all talking about the oil constantly coming out. My notice it when I am running my truck at high RPMs like 2500 like on the highways. It won't do it if I'm putting around town.
There is air coming out of the breather tube below the motor, no oil comes out without the oil fill off, no vacuum leaks found yet, the o ring on the dipstick seems fine but will replace.
The truck is a 95 3500 4x4 auto 12 valve with 213k miles.
Thanks in advance!

Cool thanks guys. I can vent it for now.
The oil was a little low. (Bottom of the mark)
I will try to just set the cap on top in the morning and get back to ya.

It doesn't matter which cover, they all go back to reservoir. The only way to find out your exact problem would be to start with a compression test for each cylinder. If your engine is stock and depending on what horsepower your running you should be between 320 and 360lbs of pressure. If lower than that you could adjust your valves and make a second pass. If low compression you have ring or valve problems. Your engine smokin' any?
