I was out testing a new fuel pressure setting...and somewhere out making some aggressive runs I puked about 6-8 oz of oil out the dipstick.
What causes this? -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???
91 Chevy C1500 "Problem Child" **SOLD** 01 Impala DD 07 Trailblazer Wife's new DD Cars run on blood, sweat, and horsepower... Without the first two, you can't get the last" SOB Racing "Sitting On Blocks" |

I have heard that popping the dipstick is a symptom of a failing engine. The boost pressure leaks past the pistons through cracked / loose rings or cylinder wall imperfections and escapes through the dipstick
