Okay, so my buddy bought a 94 supra turbo last year and soon after the head gasket blew. We replaced the gasket and all that fun stuff and now there is no more pure white smoke coming out the exhaust but now we are pushing oil out of the tail pipe, It must have been before but we couldnt tell because of the white smoke from the coolant. The guy before had plugged the breather valves on each valve cover and the one that we had loosened shot out like a bullet the instant we started the car so im guessing that we just need to breathe the valve covers ?? should this solve our oil / pressure issue? please let me know :confused: (and im guessing these plugs most likely caused the head gasket to blow. certainly didnt help)

Few things... I think you need to re-assess your symptoms carefully and post the results again. If you infact your PCV (Positive Crank Ventilation) valve "plug" shot out when you started the car then you must have HORRIBLE compression. Do perform a compression test, the tester is only $25 at any local parts/ tool store. As far as the reminance of whatever's been left in the exhaust, I'd just let it burn off by driving it. Blocking your PCV valves is the questest way to ruin your rear and front main seals on your engine.

The only reason why I'm second guessing your symptoms is because I've personally never seen a blocked pcv (essentially what the plug is) shoot up off of the valve covers. I'm sure its possible, if the compression is poor that could explain any engine smoke after the normal heat off period.
