Put a new PCV valve on. If that doesn't fix things, it sounds like your piston rings/lands are shot.

i finaly got time to crawl under the car today ... looks like i may have a loose oil filter , dripping oil on the exhaust . hopefully thats it. and yeah the pcv is definaty bad.

p.s NEVER buy a ford probe ! lol thats my other car , so far its had the motor repaced . alternator/battery and now the damn thing has blown rear seal ...errrrrrrrrrrr.

thank god for hondas!
