I'm glad to hear they agreed.

Although I doubt this is related to your oil leak, but you still should be running 10W30 as per Toyota's specifications. The correct, permanent fix to the PCV-oil problem is the installation of a catch-can.

Generally speaking, they suck. They usually don't come with piping, mounting brackets, couplers, clamps or a warranty.

It's a very simple system. There are two breathers - one with a PCV valve on the left side valve cover (attached to the intake plenum), and another on the right side valve cover. There are also two hoses going between the two valve covers. That's it. What kind of diagram were you looking for?

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
