I've seen some post about this but no real solid answers. I've got oil in intake manifold. I'm changing the rings and putting permatex on the manifold. I've changed pcv valve and checked all the vacum lines. I've hear of a solenoid but don't know which one it is? Can someone help. Being a single dad and only provider makes it tough to send it to a shop. Thanks

 

Please add your vehicle details. Year, model, engine size, mileage, etc. We are not mind readers.

 

2005 dodge ram 1500 4.7 rear wheel 170,000. New pcv, new plugs, 8 new coil packs, New water pump, radiator, egr 2 yrs old, exhaust manifold 2 yrs ago, lifter last year. Regular full synthetic oil changes.

 

I've washed the air intake. Gonna apply new rings and permatex. Put it back together and see what happens. Throttle body has garish on inside and lower intake has some. I've watched the sea foam trick but really Leary of it.

 

Some oil in the intake is normal, especially at that mileage. Getting your PCV valve from the dealer is actually a better plan, they are actually the correct flow rate. Something that can't always be said of the aftermarket fellers.
