It can also be caused by a cracked piston.

I said that above ;)

well, there is a simple soulution to this, do a leak down test and you will find your answers with that. As to doing it you might need some help, just let me know.

I checked for "blowby" tonight and that's the problem, or one of them. My pcv valve is shot so I'm in need of a new one. I found an "envalve" that is suposed to help the overall and I was wondering if anybody has ever used this. Heres the link http://www.plymouthlaser.com/pcv.htm Suposably it allows the overall engine to run better. Any advice?

You need to do a leak down test man. Thats all there is to it. Most likely your ring's or ring lands are Shot. You need to find someone taht has a leak down tester and do one to see what percentage leak you have at your ring's.
