You know they make a blow-by tester right? I have one.
It's just a steel ball in a fitted pipe with a calibrated orifice on the bottom and vented at the top.You plumb it to the CC,usually a valve cover, unplug the PCV and then seal the CC. Then you just open the throttle to whatever load or rpm or operating condition you want to simulate, and the ball jumps up and tells you about what's going on in the CC.
Before I got that tester, I used a largeface Vacuum/ fuel-pump pressure tester. It wasn't as accurate cuz the psi divisions were quite close together, and the gauge was heavily damped.
As an FWI
I used to run my 7qt pan with just 5/6 qts in it as my DD. I went to the track once, and put the full 7 in it.Straightline it was fine. I ran a rally cross with it one time with 7 in it, Big mistake. It smoked for twenty minutes until it emptied the mufflers,lol. I went home and modded the breather system, and cut some drainback channels in my brand new Eddies. Problem solved.
More FWI
I used to see this problem all the time in the small engine world. People would overfill the CC and complain that the engine was smoking and under-powered. Hyup, you guessed it too much oil in it.
Up here Canada operates with the metric system. Most of our liquid gallon jugs are actually 3.78 liters, which is 3.3 Imp qts, or 4.14 qts Us. But oil-jugs are 4.4 liters, and starting to be 5 liters/4.4Imp/5.5qts US.
Our cars usually take 5 liters/4.4qts Imp/5.5Usqt.
Our measuring devices are mostly calibrated in metric/Imp. Are you starting to see a pattern here? Hyup, you have to be a scientist or a mathematician, to do an oil-change up here.
Anything that comes in a jug bigger than about a quart/Qt/liter,lol, up here, is now just called a "jug". And we never just pour a jug in until you bring out the calculator and figure out exactly whats what.It's absolute chaos. When gas goes up it's usually by 2,5 or 10 cents a liter which , you know, doesn't sound like much. But converted to Imp, it's a stinking rip-off; 9, 22.75, and 45.5cents a gallonImp. And oil jugs rise and fall by several dollars per jug.
Milk comes in 2-liter jugs and can be over 8 bucks, a 2-liter coke is usually 3.60 or 1.97per quart-Imp/40 ounces or 1.58-quartUS/32 ounces.
Yada Yada,Yada.
Point is, people make mistakes up here all the time. I used pull the cap off, tip the device over, dribble out an appropriate amount of oil and hand it back to the customer and say there go try it now. You can imagine the look on their faces.
