Dont run it back to sump. As well as oil there will probably be water in your catch can too. Dont want that going into the sump.

indeed, i emptied the catch can on the return drive of my roadtip, there was a lot of water in with the oil. wouldnt want that going back to my sump.

i too as i got along in my trip was getting a bit more oil useage than normal in my 4agte, the plugs burn clean and i cant see it smoke out the exhaust. there is some oil being blown out the catch can breather filter onto the top of the catch can (not as much as i was useing though).
i did a comp test on the engine in Esperance (WA) and got 150psi on all cylinders, to me thats still ok. the engine had 160psi on all cylinders after i rebuilt it (bout 16 months ago). this was useing 2 different guages too, so i'll have to check it with mine on the w/end and see what it says.

one thing i have noticed a lot of these engine have heaps of blow-by when you remove the oil cap, even when in great condition. different to when you where checking the condition of the old 202 in the HJ as a test before you bought it years ago. Wink
