In the case of Ram 3500 owners... its more diesel than gasoline.

Making a mistake is one thing.... repeating bad advice time and time again,
showing complete lack of knowledge while proclaiming mastery of a topic and
other such rubbish will get the Snocone what he deserves.

Skippy:

"A bunch of us"
More people own gassers than diesels, and it wasn't enough. They just
got a lesson here, better not risk making a mistake in a.a.d.t.

I see an ongoing game with SnoMan - swat him down. Trying to cleanse the
group of a conspicuous SnoMan just filters out other people that you
don't see.
I think group is shittier than it used to be. I've been reading it for
5-6 years.

No, I wouldn't.

Looks like it gave a bunch of us enough info. What is absurd is the Idiot
doing his usual.

Now do you see the ongoing problem with your idol? He dosen't know, yet he
comes up with these long winded bs answer's that do not have a thing to do
with the problem or question.  Note that he has yet to respond to a couple
of questions posed to him in the thread.

But a lot of us do. See you learned something. Perhaps if ya knock of your
bs you might learn more.

That's the absurd thing about this thread.
The OP gave almost nothing to go on:

"I have a 99 dodge ram 3500, and it has just started leaking oil from
the blow by vent valve."

"Vent valve" doesn't describe a tube.
Not knowing the diesel, you can't know that this engine is one.

I don't know that it "won't"

Given that only the Cummins trucks have a vent, and that the gasoline
engines haven't got a vent, but a POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION system, its
Reasonable to assume that the OP has a diesel.

Since the PCV system won't leak oil externally....... but you and snohead
knew that, right?

Here's all I see from the OP:

The OP !!

Well Idiot, we are waiting

...

What I want to know is, what told you it's a diesel?
All "99 dodge ram 3500" are?

punkin, Tom doesn't want a child clinging to him. He's got a good record
here, he's honest, and he's able to both agree, and disagree, with
SnoMan as he sees appropriate.

PCV....  on a diesel....  now THAT'S funny.

Tell me - what do you think would happen if you introduced crankcase
vapors - oil mist - to the intake of a running diesel?

The whole purpose of the vent tube IS to ventilate the crankcase.  Up until
'00, the crankcase was simply vented to the atmosphere.  Then DC added a
catch bottle, to be emptied at each oil change.  The HPCR version of the ISB
saw the introduction of a crankcase breather system, which attempts to
return the oil to the crankcase, while still venting the case to the
outside.  This works better, but still isn't 100%.

In other words, as others here who actually OWN, OPERATE, and MAINTAIN these
exact engines tried to tell you, it's normal operation.

Remember our discussion from last week?  You're doing it again...

Either you have a bad or plugged PCV valve or excessive blowby from
engine wear or stuck piston rings
