Oil in my intake??? Kinda weird no???

Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure that's normal.

Pretty sure it gets burned off during combustion.
I know in a Ford Focus ST for example, an oil catch can can be installed aftermarket to prevent oil build up inside the throttle body.

Fightman80,

No, oil is not supposed to be in the intake. Maybe for Connor.

Change your PCV first. If it still persists, look for some blue smoke on start up in the morning. It could be bad valve guide seals. I am in the same boat and have rigged up a catch can to prevent any from getting into my intake until I can get to replacing the seals.

[foxrider56]

Installed some offroad roof lights I mounted on my
Rola roof rack, got the lights for a steal from Walmart they were priced at 87 total but I got them for 45 total since they advertised them wrong. Not bad for 4 pretty decent lights

Are you doing other work to it or is it sitting on jackstands for two weeks just for paint?

Just for paint. I am doing 6 coats of base...needs time to cure in between sets of 3.

[BlackCat914]

Finished my OCD detail. It took me like 2 weeks, haha. I'm now going to get started on the projector retrofit, followed by lift and tires, which will hopefully be done by July.

 

[GhostRing]

My take on the most important mod one can do.

[PaperweightNate]

New plugs and wires.. Extended my battery cables and installed a group 65 battery.. detailed the engine bay.. kinda.. cleaned up my winch and off road light wires.. ran a rag though my throttle body valve.. you know.. the usual..

 

[paddlenbike]

CB radio and all associated wiring and antenna coax removed. I'm done with CB...too many hillbillies running illegal setups and crowding the channels.
