I have a 914 with fresh CIS 3.0 6 in it (less than 3k on rebuild). Due to travel etc I'm only driving it every 6 weeks or so. Every time I start it it smokes like crazy and some oil actually flows out of the tail pipe. Oil level is 2/3 of the way up between low and high marks. Took the air filter off to look for oil @ the air intake and did see a little as well as a small trickle of oil @ the top of the breather in the oil spout running back into the tank. Do I just need to keep the tank emptier?
If the car is driven 3 - 4 days in a row the symptoms go away |

Never said ALL the oil drains back. I've read the explaination about 911 engines smoking at start up in several credible sources. Not claiming to be an expert and defer to your explanation.
