Default Bubbles in Oil

Hey,


So i got a fresh aebs cam seal cause i had a weak p30 stocker from my jdm b16, and i just took a trip to the gas station after a week and gave it a looksy. Saw small air bubbles on the dipstick...theres about 1500 miles on the oil, and about 100 on the cam seal...

I hoping its not the head gasket, but when i got the cam seal on my compression was 205 across the board... so im thinkin its gotta be something else...

when i did a search it said pvc system...but im not too sure what that is so any help would be great....Thanks alot

ERic

Correct if you have to much oil in the car then it will start to foam up.(like a dog with rabies) thus the foam has bubbles in it, which is why when you check your oil level you saw bubles. Start simple, change the PVc out,drive around check it. change oil and make sure not to overfill it to much. i usually do 4.5 just to be safe. sometimes more since im turbo. And do you have an intake?
