after 4 weeks now fumbleing around trying to fix a nasty miss. i replaced the coil, wires, plugs, car/rotor. compression avg 170 lbs.
it barely idles and drives very bad.
today i gave up and took off the intake and there is alot of oil in the runners.

also looks like a litle oil/water mix kinda milky, but may be from the sea foam i forced down the injectors. i guess i'll do a leak down test then pull the head. i just put on a brand new muffler too. just a cheapo dynomax but sounds good, it took a very long time to burn in. kindaweird?


advice welcome

milky substance in the lower intake only, dipstick looks normal so does valve train under oil cap. whats weird is it happened all at once. like throwing a switch. power loss, won't idle, etc. going to do a leak test today. comp is normal. its gotta come from two places: down the guides around valves, or blowby bad rings. which very odd that all rings go at once.
ur sig says 2.9l. funny my ecm art# says its a 2.9 as well.
