Help
I'm having a problem with too much oil coming out of my crank case breather tube on my 52 Panhead. I have an S&Soil pump on it, its not my oil filter mesh too tight, it's not the check ball, or pinched hoses. Any ideas or suggestions would be great. Thanks Tim

Yeah I'm not too full of oil that's for sure. But thanks for your input.

that was my thought also, measure c/c pressure.
how about the breather timing.
how long have you been running the s&s pump?
is the oil bag tied to c/c to equalize pressure
do not remember if there was a screen on the breather or not, but it could be coking up.
run leak down test.
been a long time but vaguely if, and a big if, i remember right, when using a larger volume pump, S&S also has a newer breather with altered timing slots to increase opening time, perhaps a call to s&s tech dept would shine a light on it. also, an enlargement of an oil passage.
