Nope...
...havent hit ignore.
Simply gave up.
Having tried to look at this from all sides, even offering a mea culpa or two....
..... the resultant replies made any further participation pointless.
Obviously on this here interweb, Trekker and I will not see eye to eye.
Maybe one day we can sit eye to eye..... I hope so.

Another week since the vent install & no appreciable oil consumption. Still only 2 tanks though. I'll keep you posted. Rekin it's time to start collecting the parts I'll need for the crossover tube.
BTW - the P0442 code came back on Friday. It was a good run ... but maybe it's time to insert a crowbar in the wallet & procure a new gas cap (mebbe one to match the new 710 cap)

Put a smiley after you say that Bub.
Sorry Tom, I have it on good authority that your crossover-tube-thingy will never work, so it would seem (I've been told) that it is a complete waste of time. Now mind you good sir, I only tell you this so as to save you the unnecessary trouble and expense of continuing with this useless endeavor! Now if you've heard this somewhere before I humbly apologize, we may have both heard it from the same source... You may disregard my previous comments stating otherwise, sorry. (For someone special)

& I thank you for the warning/advice.
Remember however that scientists discovered 39 ways NOT to make a synthetic alternative to fish oil before they made WD-40 available to their adoring public.
Gimme at least one more try so that I can offer T4B-3.
Ah yes, WD-40 the other nectar of the Gods...the God of all things mechanical, the God of all things electrical, the God of all things metal, the God of all things plastic, the God of all things rusty, the God of all things gunky, the God of all things etc, etc, etc...You do know they sell that stuff in 55 gallon drums right?
DANG ... it does all that???
I've just been using it to remove sticker residue & polish my cladding.
Now I'll hafta run out & buy me a 55 gal drum.
Don't forget the industrial sprayer to apply it!!
Had to add some oil at the 3rd fill up (~1/2 quart) ... but it's much mo betta than before.
EDIT:
This is good enough for me to decide that the crossover tube is worth the effort (sorta). I'll probably not put it on the Amigo just yet ... but since the valve covers are still not installed on Boy's Ebony, I'll definitely install the port on the right bank before I put them back on.

I'll repeat what Tom posted in an unrelated thread, let's take these "yellow-shoelace" contests elsewhere (like to PM's) and keep this crap off the open forum pages. It's all getting really, really old!
