Tha Dragon Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Hi guys, I just overhauld my engine and installed forged pistons, piston rings and piston pins, changed all seals bearings, oilpump timing belt, but I was running my engine for a while and after that I went to check oil and all the other stuff when I checked my engine oil it was @ half full and I noticed oil residu right @ the intake right where the hose connects to the intake.It doesn't smoke no bit and I don't see no leakage where I park my car, I find it very strange can you guys just fill me in on what could be the problem?Best regardsTha Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
davehart Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Could be the rocker cover gasket? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tha Dragon Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 Don't think so, "Dave" cause it's all clean, only @ the intake right after the intercooler hose connects to the intake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

corofin12345 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) did your prime the engine and top up after or did you just fill to the level and start? Edited January 10, 2013 by corofin12345 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tha Dragon Posted January 11, 2013 Author Share Posted January 11, 2013 My mechanic did the overhaul and everything and he told me drive the car chill for a couple of weeks change the oil and after I'll b ready for the tuning and all that this week I am going to change the oil and after that I'll let u guys know, how's if it's still doing it or not, but my concern was the engine going empty on oil and the leakage @ my intake.I aske a couple of other mechanic here on the island they told me it could be the oil rings but not sure yet as soon asi I change the oil I'll let u guys know.Sorry for the late response busy these days.Best regardsTha Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
