Oil in air intake tube.???

[tamalpass]

I was installing that little brass thingy for the TV cableon my 91 wagon.

When I removed the air intake elbow from the throttle body, there was oil in it, and oil residue where it had been leaking from the bottom of the tube.

Two things come to mind. First, the PCV is stopped up. (I plan to take care of that )

Second, the driver side exhaust tailpipe is bent where it restricts flow. planning to fix that as well.

is there something else I should look for??

Probably most of the issue is the PCV system. Most of the time the screen is plugged solid and the rubber grommet has turned to rock.

I had this problem .. screen below the PCV was blocked solid with caked oil.
