Default Re: Oil in injector housing?

The entire crankcase ventilation goes through the injector housings. Over time, two things happen, (1) oil accumulates in the inj housings and (2) the inj housing bolts frequently work loose, allowing oil to seep along the gasket interface.

Install new inj hang gaskets on clean (with brake cleaner) dry surfaces. Clean the bolts and the tapped holes in the heads with brake cleaner to remove oil. Reinstall with Loctite 242 (blue) or comparable med strength product.
