Hi Folks
Happy Holiday Weekend
I did some searching, however, I could not locate the advise I was looking for.
Model 2001 C2
I was attempting to install a Cold Air Intake by top speed, so I decided to take a peek at the throttle body, looked clean, no excessive grunge near the throttle valve. I looked deep inside and noticed what looked like oil beads on the
intake tube pipe. Upon close inspection with a paper towel on a stick - it appears to be oil - mixture.
Also, I have noticed a little oil consumption, after 1400 miles (-2bars on the dash reading) Typically I notice almost none at this point in time. - Car is tight, not a leak that I can see. I really look it over every few weeks - up close.
I have been driving the car with some spirit, in the last few months, 3500-5500rpm range for 60-100 mile drives.
Question:> is some oil considered normal in the throttle body ?
Question:> is 2 bars down after 1400 miles considered normal under - spirited driving ?
any feedback is greatly appreciated. pic attached, it is hard to shoot this, and i did wipe some residue from the middle of the T-body, before taking the pic - yes - rookie move. On the edge, you can see some instance of oil.
Thank you for the advise
Mark
