Yep, I drilled an 1/8" hole in the top of the filler cap, and I also wrapped
the tube with pipe insulation, the same material you have in your cooly cup.
One thing I have noticed, if the ambient temp. is above 70 degrees I get
very little if any condensation, but if its in the 20, 30, 40's range, I get
the sludge.
This morning (9am) its in the upper 50's and I just checked it, no sludge in
the tube but, there is some in the top of the cap.
I took the digital camera out and got pictures of the cap and sludge, can
someone post them to a web site for everyone to see?? Curt????

"Matt drilled a hole in his filler cap and it helped minimize it.
DC should have just put a hole in the valve covers, I liked having dual
oil
filler holes on my 92."
How big of a whole would you suggest drilling in the cap ?
