Oil breather cap smoking. Thank you again for everyone that has helped to give us tips to get our 47 Dodge 2 ton beast on the road running and stopping. Keeping her strong we noticed smoke starting to slightly come out of the oil breather cap either after about 30 minutes of running, or on days that are hotter than 80°. Should we be concerned or is this part of the design and purpose of the oil breather? We do not smell burning oil, engine block is tight, oil pressure is ideal, all audio lines through oil filter canister are clean and running, oil pump seems to be operating correctly, etc. In-line six runs at about 115° to 120° on Hot days. Runs below 115° that on days that or less than 80° outside. Oil may need to be changed. Changed about eight months ago, and topped off last month. Only reason I haven’t changed in 8 months is because once we changing the oil we ran the 47 maybe 20 miles over the period of time of getting her up and running. Thoughts?
