After replacing the valve covers with new ones the oil leak problem i had is gone, now when i jump on it, oil shoots out of the brand new breather. What will help cure this problem.

Do you use a PCV valve in your set up? AND do the old valve covers have baffles inside the breather ports that the new covers don't have??? If the covers were the only thing you changed and the problem wasn't there before, then check for the baffles......Moneypitt

I beleive Mr Gasket sells a baffled grommet that should slow down your problem, if not stop it. It lets air pass, but not oil. Or, you can just get some extensions, or tall bolt on breathers, to get them away from the oil.
