i was taking the ducting off to clean the MAF and TB and when i got it off there was oil all over the throttle body. i noticed a while back that my oil dipstick had blown out some and threw oil everywhere. My guess is that crancase pressure got high and blew oil thru the dipstick and i guess the Intake and throttle body as well. any ideas on this? Isnt there a sensor that is supposed to monitor this crankcase pressure? If there is that may be faulty and whats causing my problem. All i know is that oil in the intake is not good. this would also explain why the car smokes sometimes espically at high RPM. any help would be great

check pcv system and after that perform a cylinder leakage test to verify seal of rings and or compression test to verify engine worthiness

damn you why do you always get to this stuff before me lol. he is right try replacing your pcv valve mine got stuck and sucked up a quart of oil intomy intake and out my exhaustin a 1/4 mile run or you could have some very excessive blow by from your rings. what is it mjr 8% is normal leakage? anyway when doing that listen at your oil fill and see if you hear a hissing if you do then you got bad rings. do the same thing at the trottle body and you got bad intake valve guides seals or what ever same with the exhaust

sometimes if you have excessive blowby you can put your finger over the dipstick tube hole and feel the pressure.. I got this customer with a volvo that literally shoots a stream of smoke out the tube hole and it's funny you can really feel the pressure build up..needless to say I 'm suprised it still runs...2 cyl had 70 psi last time it was in...oh and SORRY hackgt350.......AS FAST as fast can be you'll never post faster than me!!!lol!!! anyway, I kmow it's a while off but do you plan to go to cj pony parts customer apreciation day again this year?? maybe I'll see you there

im hoping its the pcv anyway. where is this valve and how do i check it? there is a CEL but i dont have enough time to do that koer thing, maybe ill try to tommorow. I need to find out what this little plug on top of the Throttle body is, it goes onto the right side of the throttle body. this plugin's wires have been cut.

no i dont think ill be making it this year. my brother is getting married july 11th and ill be home the 2 weeks before that so i dont think ill have the money to make the trip from mass to pa just for a day thats a bit of a haul for me. but we will see it all depends on the money hopefully ill have the new engine in by then. i dunno its up in the air right now we will see


as for the CEL i would get that checked out its not good to drive around like that you could have something that needs to be fixed asap
