Can a bad AOS in a Porshe Boxster 986 result in acceleration problems? We found oil in the ventilating tube and also there is suction in the oil cap, meaning a bad AOS. We assume that it is creating a negative suction in the intake manifold that results in a lean mixture while accelerating creating hesitation and POP POPs when accelerating. If we spray starting fluid directly while accelerating it works perfect. There are no codes.

If popping you have either a large vacuum leak or a timing issue. If the AOS diaphragm has failed, it could be your issue. Fuel trim numbers should show this, skewed with a correction for a lean condition.
