Just took off my stock intake for a K&N Typhoon I got DIRRRRTTT cheap locally.

Notice this oil pooling, as well as a bit of residue throughout parts of the stock intake... nothing substantial. Just curious if this is normal?

 

I don't see anything.

 

Normal for an LNF to have oil in the intake after the PCV? Yes. That seems to be a bit excessive though. I've never seen much more than an oily film in mine. You seen to have a puddle going there.

 

mine had this puddle too when I took my intake off.

 

Dibs on tc grille.

 

^ such a ass

 

That's not much oil. Probably collecting for a while. Get a catch can

 

Same thing happened when I took mine off.

 

 

I haz the oil pool. I left it cause it came with the car so I assume its part of the gm engineering

 

Ah the beauty of gm engineering

 

Good to know its more or less normal.

The stock intake was really clean, and I didn't find much oil anywhere else.

 

you need our pcv upgrade. then the excess oil wont happen....

 

^ x2...


Better at the intake then at the manifold runners. Seeing oil in either locations are not ideal.

 

That's what I have

 

revision on the way I will send you a shipping toomorra. cheers

 

Really want to get the PCV upgrade! Will this work with the WR-3? And did you make the revisions to fit better with the K&N John?

 

wuts the cost on it again?

 

It just pools there cause its the lowest point, if u have blowby a bit, it may just film ur intake but eventually it will cause a puddle. I have a film to I just wipe it off. Even on new engine, same thing. No biggy. When I had my 4g63, that shot alot of oil out the vent hose lol

 

on a direct injection engine oil pooling in the inlet out of the pcv is an issue/ not a " no biggy". And vented to the atmosphere race style engines for the street are not very nice due to the fumes. Just sayin'

 

my K&N did that too when i took it off.
