Before you blow out another oil pan gasket or something else, check your PCV valve to make sure it's flowing well. On the '00 VP with the SOHC non-VTEC 1.6L D16Y7, the PCV valve is located on the firewall-side of the block, just above the oil filter. It can be a bit of a pain to reach, but it's do-able with just your bare hands unless you're huge.

Thank you! I'll probably tackle this on Saturday. I'll let ya know how I do.

Got it done. So far so good...
