    If you're blowin' oil out the dipstick, then there is excessive crankcase pressure doing it. Either your vents are plugged or there is a one-way valve that is sticking closed or installed backwards or something else is wrong with them. The only way the motor has to vent right now is through the dipstick tube. Not good.
