Put a inches of water gauge on the dip stick tube, by the means of a hose and clamp. run engine like the other blow by gauge and see the results. normal should not be over 1.5 inches on new engines, but seen let go up to two and a half and that's alot. this is the way they use to check blowby before the new style came out. do not block the breather tube, might want to clean the breather screen.
also make sure the oil is at the full mark not over it. the tube has a small hole inside to let the air equillize, so you dont push oil out the dip stick tube. send results please.
