Hi all wise and knowledgeable ones!!!!!!!!!!

 

Diff one to explain have my engine out to do tubbs! ( Gettin ready for Japfest) and others things while its out, was fittin my PCV valves and the old ones are all clogged up with like a brown colour, almost looks like water and oil has got into them, i know they go but not sure wot they look like when they do.

 

Also my throttle bodies have oil inside the rim and the EGR exhaust gas pipes at the top when u have the plenum off are all blocked up with mucky oil, when i took of the outlet pipe next to the compressor wheel there was oil lyin on the rim as if oil was leakin from that side as well as the turbine side of the turbo, is this possible?!!

 

If anyone can give me any light on the above id be well chuffed, im learnin as i go so sorry if the above doesnt make sense on what am actually tryin to say!!

 

Cheers!! :)

Depends which pipes they were as some of them have a little brush like filter in them but not all of them do, this might explain the colour as they are like copper oloured :confused:

I would wager that due to your PCV's not working the vapour that they release from the engine, which will be made up of oil and air has collected over time. As for the oil in side the rim of the throttle bodies, this is probably also caused by poor ventilation of the engine, again blocked PCV's.
