19212, HELP Oil in intake mainifold
Posted by Pyscodragon, Apr-07-02 01:54 AM
I just pulled my intake to replace my gasket(it had a leak and the car was like idleing at 2-2.5 rpms)And there was oil in all of the runners especially in 3&4 but no oil in the intake pipe from the turbo WTF Im confused But I think the oil might have ate away the gasket? Is that possible any help or suggestions please

PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve. You might not have oil in the intake that attaches to the turbocharger but I promise you will have it all over your intercooler pipes assuming you have an intercooler. That is, if it is the PCV valve.

There is always oil in your intake manifold. It is supposed to be there.
See that rubber hose that attaches from the valve cover to the intake manifold right behind the "D" in "DOHC"? That vents air and oil into your intake manifold. It is perfectly normal.
