So i went out and bought a vacuum gauge to see what is going on and confirm some suspicions with my current 305 after reading the thread on vacuum a couple times.
Readings:
Manifold Vac = 17inches
PCV port on carb straight to gauge=20 inches
Gauge in line with PCV port on carb to PCV valve=12 inches
Breather hole on opposite valve cover=0 inches
All of these readings were steady.
Safe to assume this is definitely the cause of bad rings? I'm assuming this is the reason i have oil in my breather filter. I don't see where else i'd be loosing vacuum to my PCV
