High crankcase pressure usually would be caused by clogged oil journals in the engine. There are passages through out the engine allowing gasses to escape from it.
Older Ford Trucks actually had a vent tube that stuck out of the bottom of the engine to release this pressure. Burned valves and bad lifters and/or push rods can cause this also.
Generally a tear down would be necessary to pin point the problem.
split open the crankcase
Combustion pressure getting past the piston into the crankcase. Worn rings or failed piston are normal causes.
In crankcase filter box
One possible cause is a blocked PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve. As your motor is running the crankcase will build with pressure and the PCV system will let the motor breathe. If the PCV valve is blocked or faulty then the motor will look to release the pressure somewhere else.
...It will be what ever your suction pressure is.
Too much oil, excessive crankcase pressure ( bad piston rings ) or both. pressure causes oil to come the filter tude and capilarity is also a factor. pressure causes oil to come the filter tude and capilarity is also a factor.
Normally caused by excessive crankcase pressure. A blocked breather or bad piston rings are the likely causes.
the high pressure oil pump
High crank case pressure is caused by "Blow By" (Exhaust Gas bypassing the Compression rings on your pistons a little blow by perfectly normal) There will be a valve like a PCV valve in your Valve cover. Its probably faulty, replace it. may be plugged, change it.
High pressure
High blood pressure
Plugged positive crankcase ventilation valve or collasped hose for the PCValve.
