oil return line under oil level?
#21
I think the issue may be that the oil coming out the drain is FROTH.
If the return is above the oil level, the froth falls out and spreads over the whole area of the top of the oil to dissipate.
If the oil level is up the drain hose, the froth doesn't break up, and backs up.
Now how bad could backed up froth be... ?

Out of curiosity, how does it 'blow seals everywhere'? I've hear that before but never witnessed it. Seems like all that would happen is that the crank would maybe froth up the oil a bit if you drove it that way. I know foamy oil sucks for bearings, but why would the seals care?
