it vents in the pump and it would n't be blocked otherwise it would be shooting oil all over.

Thank you so much. That's exactly what I needed to know...the oil was spewing out, which means I need to replace the pump.

wellit cold be a bd cap but I kind of doubt it. you might check for a blocked line first though like see if the cooling line is returning to the pump.also if it is overfull it will do that as well.
