Outta ideas, What's wrong??

Hey there all,
I am wondering if anyone knows why i am all of a sudden getting oil in my short ram intake piping???? I have been running about a 75-100 shot a nitrous, and all of a sudden, When i hit the switch, it just sputters, and back fires... It is the zex wet kit.. When i got home there was oil dripping outta my filter.. I then cleaned out all the oil. then drove about another 20-30 miles, using no nitrous, and still getting oil in intake piping.. I did a compression test thinkin i was getting blow-by, but still 195-200 all around.. runs perfect not slugish or anything now... no oil in coolent... I am outta ideas......

Do you have a hose or breather connected to the port on the right side of the front valve cover? The only way oil will get in your intake is if vaccum is not hooked up right. I dunno....try searching

try puting a breather on your valve cover and plugging up that line. Atleast then you can rule out that its coming from your valve cover...

If it doesnt, it means you were getting oil into your intake from your head. If it is still there its coming from the throttle body.
