I think he means something to do with the crank case pressure?

Perhaps the breather is blocked? It only routes upto the airbox but worth checking.

to be honest even if the breather were blocked I doubt it would be noticable at all. Above the pistons they are compressing at 12:1 (havn't bothered to find out the exact figure) and below its like 100+ times more air space than in the cylinder. I will have to look into it at the weekend properly
