oil in intake manifold
oil in intake manifold
ok everyone knows about the breather on the valve cover mod, but people don't do anything about the pcv valve. i put one of those clear fram fuel filters in. there pretty small and you can see when it fills up with oil. it's pretty neat cuz you don't get oil in your intake manifold. like this

Re: oil in intake manifold
If your blowing more oil through the pcv, then most likely the piston rings/valve seals are worn out.Originally posted by Josh:

Re: oil in intake manifold
no i know for 100 percent that i have no oil blow by. i just put 5K on my bran new motor. i just switched over to synthetic. just ever scince i went turbo, the manafold side of the pcv valve is always just alittle wet. not dripping, just wet. and its kinda irratating to me. i was thinking of swapping to the 323 b6t pcv their a little different and it has a different diafram. but this seems like a good idea to have on their anyways.

Re: oil in intake manifold
nice... i wondered why it did that. i'll be trying that out to help eliminate that oil passing through to the manifold
Re: oil in intake manifold
just make sure you change it when it fills up lol. it will probably fill in 6 months

Re: oil in intake manifold
Im using a filter that is used to remove moisture from an air line on an air compressor.

You just get that and add the two ends ae quick connects for compressors. Total <20 bux and youcan just remove the plastic piece and remove the oil.

Re: oil in intake manifold
I just connected it inline to the hose that goes from the PCV to the IM
