Sup everyone

about a week ago i noticed a fluid in between the indentures of the throttle body right above the valve cover on that end. i cant seem to figure out what fluid it is and where its coming from so i decided to turn to the org.

any ideas
thanks

Describe the fluid. Is it dark? Clear? Viscous? Odor?

 

its a darker fluid...its a little lighter than motor oil like an orange/brownish color im baffled on what it is..

thanks

 

Like Ravq asked, oily or not?

I'd wipe the area clean and see if it reappears... double check the fluid levels around the car.

 

thanks chunger i did try the wipe test and it did re appear and its oily i dont know it is..we need to meet up at one of the next mcc meets i want to check out your car..

thanks

Check the PCV valve on the driver's end of the rear valve cover. It's just in front of and below the TB. I don't know where else to look. If it's engine oil... your dipstick should show up low.

There's no splattering anywhere else nearby?

 

I was going to say the same thing, it sounds like crank case blow by. Look around for a lose or disconnected hose or PCV valve.
