I took out my stock airbox to put in a SRI. I noticed that my vacume line was sucking oil out of my engine and putting it in the intake. I asume this may be valve seals but im not sure. How much dammage might this caused? Any suggestions or Input is apreciated. My car is running like a 2 stroke and I dont like it.

 

Let me list all the problems and what I have checked
PCV valve = good
intake and vac line = has oil in it
spark plugs are white on the tips and burnt on the ceramic = leaning out
I was going to do a compression test but it doesnt look like my tester is long enough to fit down to the cylinders.

 

the oil in the lines is normal. it's supposed to take excess pressure from the head as well as the pcv valve.

the plugs might be more of a clue as to what it could be. any pics?

 

I think my plugs were gone from wear + being at the track on saturday + 94 octane on a stock lancer.

I did my compression check and I was just Under 180 on all 4. I dont know what its supposed to be at but at least its even.

Thanks for the help

 

Yup. That's the sludge that goes back into the intake to be reburned. It's supposed to minimize pollution by reburning it. That's what breather filters are frowned upon by the inspection people in most states. As long as it's not clogged you should be ok. If you have something like a puddle liquid oil (as opposed to something like a mist), you may have another problem such as blowby.

 

Well Its hard to say, Its possible that the majority of it was from when I was beating on my car at the track on the weekend. Circut tracks are havok on engines. I think everything is fine. Im not puffing any smoke or anything (my car anyways).
