dont think this is normal......

ZoomZoomMFer · May 27th, 2009, 05:21 PM

Went to go replace my JLT CAI with a RAI because it rains so much down here, and look what i found when i took the CAI off... and i dont know what is causing it, but on that side, it seems like everything is coated in oil(shown in pictures)

valve cover:

anyone have any suggestions?

00GT5spd · May 27th, 2009, 06:15 PM

Gasket? or is it comen outta the throttle body?

ZoomZoomMFer · May 27th, 2009, 06:46 PM

no there was nothing in the TB

Boostang · May 27th, 2009, 06:51 PM

mine has some in the throttle body.. but i still have to stock rubber POS intake on mine so i dunno if there is any oil in mine...

00GT5spd · May 27th, 2009, 06:52 PM

could be a bad gasket and throwen oil..

ZoomZoomMFer · May 27th, 2009, 06:52 PM

valve cover gasket?

00GT5spd · May 27th, 2009, 06:54 PM

yea.. i dont think a head gasket would throw oil that high.. but.. its always possible..

DickH · May 27th, 2009, 06:56 PM

Maybe it's that hose that come from the head and connects to the intake?

thats what it was, but what would cause it the get oil in it?

DickH · May 27th, 2009, 07:14 PM

That's what it does. I don't know the exact details on the why, but it is normal.
I bet if you took it off and looked, your plenum has a nice layer of oil as well.

ZoomZoomMFer · May 27th, 2009, 07:16 PM

Talked to AC, said it was because the cam lobe slings oil into that tube..

DickH · May 27th, 2009, 07:47 PM

Yeah however it happens, it's not really that big of a deal. If emmissions isn't important you can cap off your intake and pit breathers on your heads.

UnixHH · May 27th, 2009, 07:52 PM

you guys are talking about the pcv valve. that's one of your marvelous emissions inventions that takes the aerated oil that's being slung around and pulls it out of the valve cover and back through the intake to be burnt up in the combustion process instead of being release into the atmosphere. fucking hippies. anyways, if your state allows it in your inspections you can just replace that hose with a breather and cap off the hole in the intake, or you can buy and oil catch can.

ZoomZoomMFer · May 27th, 2009, 10:32 PM

where would i get either of those?

no emissions in fla

RTRBURN · May 27th, 2009, 10:37 PM

+1 on PVC Valve

AzSonicSnake · May 27th, 2009, 10:38 PM

i'd make your own. goto home depot and pick up an air compressor filter, and a few 3/8 barb's, and some hose, and your good to go.

bullitt ak · May 27th, 2009, 10:40 PM

nice reservoir tip lol

AzSonicSnake · May 27th, 2009, 10:43 PM

haha. thanks! btw- i had about 20 bucks in making that thing. and its been worth its weight in gold! keeping oil out of the heat exchanger FTW!
