 +===== Test with air cleaner removed =====
 +The A/C was removed to see if it had any impact on crankcase pressure testing. \\
 +There was no noticeable difference with it off through the RPM range tested up to 5000. \\
 +There was also no noticeable oil mist during this period. \\
 +Condensation and light oil mist accumulation at the bolts was from original testing before replacing the umbrellas. \\
 +But none of this is was in the filter and no oil puking. \\
