boredincl is on a distinguished road
Thanks for the info Seattle, I recent did the ABC delete as well, but also installed the ProVent per the sgrice diy. On the first drive I had a oily mess because apparently I accidentally knocked the top cap loose while I was finishing the install. It really surprised me how much oil was around since i only drove a few miles. the next trip was a bit harder and then 10 miles of hwy driving. while on the hwy I checked the oil level through the DIS and is showed low when i just did a change. I stopped and checked it via the dip stick and the level was fine, while stopped i also checked again with the DIS and is showed normal as well. I was wondering if the increased boost from the new tune was somehow causing the ProVent to cycle oil through and into the pan?
I unhooked the ProVent for now, but will be re-connecting after i replace the exhaust manifold due to #1 port wrapped. it really upsets me because i know it was when i put it back together, but thought the new gaskets would still seal it up.
Anyway... your thoughts on the oil level indication change?
As a side note i very seldom us the DIS to check the level so maybe its just always acted like that and i just never noticed it.
