Any ideas?

Sounds like you could be getting blow-by and it's sucking it back out the breather pipe into the intake, has it lost power???????

Hi all.
I'm up near Cairns and have had the 4.8 since new.(2004) She has 120,000 on the clock.
She has always been dealer serviced, but thought I'd do plugs/oil etc myself this tme round.
She has lost a bit of power when warmed up but not blowing smoke though.
I must say, I may be getting a bit emotionaly attached and am thinking of a few mods. (has 2"lift kitand new BFG muds) possibly extractors/exhaust mods. (will tell the other woman the exhaust needs changing)
Anyway, back to it, will update profile soon.
