The car had a blown head gasket (oil in water). I replaced the head gasket and that cured that problem. Now I have excessive air pressure coming out of the hose from the valve cover to the fresh air intake. Thecar will not idle unless I adjust the idle control screw and even then dies when put in gear. Any ideas?
