Default 92' 940 T PVC/PCV where is it!???

If someone could show me a picture, I think mine might be clogged, I am getting excessive oil in my turbo system.

Thank you!

That large tube that goes across the valve cover goes to the PCV flame trap. The black things in the first pic is what a flame trap looks like. It's regularly what gets clogged. The honey comb is what clogs. I took mine out years ago. The trap goes on the elbow (highlighted in yellow in the second pic). That is between the 3rd and 4th runner on the intake manifold. If your car is a non turbo it may be different, but I would think that the trap is in about the same location. The oil separator is under the intake. It's less likely to clog.

I had checked the "flame trap". Mine was more like the one on the bottom left of the left picture, but mine was white and didn't have a bulky and small end. just two same size ends and a vacuum tube. it was dirty but it was not clogged, Had some heavy residue oil in it though, I also did not see a honeycomb.

The one in the pic was in my car. I took it out entirely. I think a lot of turbo cars didn't even come with one. Your turbo my be leaking just from age and wear. I would look in the compressor side and wiggle it. Make sure there is not rubbing, especially axially (along the shaft).
