Re: [Peugeot-L] blow by

          Assuming this is an XN6 gas engine (XDs are diesels), the crankcase breather screens are in a can attached to the block near the starter. There is a screen in the cap and one in the bottom of the tube. If they are not too plugged they may be cleaned, otherwise replaced. A formed rubber hose from the top of the cap connects to the big rubber air boot, with a small hose teed to the intake manifold.

If the screens are plugged you will get oil leaks and your dipstick may pop up.
