Vent hose oil drip on 04.5
Vent hose oil drip on 04.5
On my 04.5 dodge i am getting some oil drips on my driveway if it sits for a week or so. Its not a lot, maybe quarter sized after a week or so of sitting. Its coming from the vent hose which i assume is the crankcase vent tube. Any good ideas on keeping this from happening on my clean concrete driveway? I assume this is normal or am i getting blowby and should have it checked out? Also any good remedies to clean the oil stains i have on the driveway now. Someone told me the oxyclean powder stuff works great.
Thanks, Sean

Getting a few drops from the vent tube of blow by is normal, but in all of my trucks, 04.5, 06, 07 etc.. I have never got more than 1 drop ever few months... Most of the time never.. I am sure someone will chime in here...
Its not leaking oil, its sweating HP. 
A simple fix is find a plastic bottle that the hose will fit thru the lid then run a small nail or screw thru the hose to keep the lid and bottle attached. You can just unscrew the bottle to dump it when needed.
