Hey guys, was doing regular inspection of fluids in my car and noticed that on the front part of UIM where it connects with the head(?) there is some oil I can see on the gasket. I just did oil change and everything was clean, I was there all the way. I have no codes, not burning oil, car has 113k on it. Any input is greatly apprecaeted. Thank you.

 

noone ?

 

pop it off make sure its oil and inspect,
also there may be too much oil in the engine, this is bad
last time i left too much oil in the car it came out my sparkplug tubes

 

mine looks 3 times as bad, across all runners. i think it started happening after i switched the stock intake tube for the frankencar one. the stock one has those molded ridges that trap stuff that you see in the picture.
and this is NOT a sign of having too much oil!

 

May be I am just overreacting then...lol. Thank you. But may be its still good to open up the manifold, clean it and change the gaskets?

 

Mine has a tad too....its really not much to worry about....if its alot of oil then worry...thats prolly just a lil blow-by

 

My car was overfilled with oil previous time, those dum asses put 5qts in. I made them to take some out, may be not enough...

 

there should be NO oil getting into your intake manifold. the only exception being crank case ventilation (the rubber hose that goes from the right side of the front cylinder bank into the intake tube); but the amount should be almost non-existant. if your engine got 5 quarts of oil instead of 4.5 at the time of the oil change, its no big deal, still within the tolerances.

 

looks fine. your cars just showing its age. as long as your not blowing smoke out your ***
