Checking Intake for OIL
I have been reading about KR and several folks on the LS1.com have said to check the back of the throttle blade for oil. But since the Camaro has a cable TB and ours are drive by wire, is it possible to manually open the throttle blade or will I have to pull the TB. Also I have never had an oil consumption issue with the car. Thanx, Jeff

You can push the throttle blade open with a finger. I recently had mine out for porting and did this. Some place in the system there is a spring that bias's the throttle blade towards closed. :cheers:

Wow! I just posted here with an oil in the manifold problem I'm having on a LS6.
Tell me more about what you have been reading or supply the link.
P.S. Yes you can push the throttle blade open, it takes a little pressure though. :chevy
Thanks in Advance
