Angry oil problem

Got myself a 1986 non turbo jetta. Runs great but builds up a bit of internal pressure causing oil to sprout out thru the dipstick even when on idle. Other jettas can idle for long without this occurring and even without the dipstick on. Wonder what the problem might be?

You need to check the positive crankcase ventilation for blockages.
