my 02 dmax leaks oil all over my driveway when idling, it appears to be coming from the oil breather tube. is that much oil coming from there normal??

could be getting fuel in the oil causing it to overflow. injectors could be the culprit.

Are you sure?

It is hard to see, the fuel diluting the oil and all, many have made the mistake before!

Does your oil smell like fuel? Do you have low oil pressure?
Put a drop on a paper towel from your dipstick and see if there is a halo around the oil spot.
