Just trying to check everything cause i dont think its a head gasket. I think its more like a vaccum leak.

If I remember,it should be screwed into a valve cover...pull one of the hoses off and theyre should be a plastic knob that can screw off and the pcv will be inside there...then again I might be thinking of the other 4 cylinder.

dunno i took pics of what my friend says shows i have a bad head gasket

 

thsi is what it looke like in my vac hoses running from the head. There is not a lot in there but there is some.

 

And again no oil in coolant and no coolant in oil.. pluss i noticed when the idles rough it seems to want to lose vacum. brake lines get stiff and such.

There is no PCV on the Quad 4. The black thing on the intake manifold is an oil/air seperator. Head gaskets are a common problem on these engines, I'd suggest you do a compression check to see if that is the problem. It could also be something like a cracked head.

that doesnt to bad, if the car hasnt been driven too much in a while it could be moisture build up in the oil. hows the oil dip stick look?
