Especially after just doing the lower intake. Thought I would have to tear everything down again. I will keep an eye on my oil and catch can everday I drive it for the next couple of weeks or so. Hopefully it will go back to a normal dark color like yours. I feel better now knowing you are finding the same with yours.

Just think, that crap would have been in your engine if you didn't have the catch installed.

I know. I keep thinking that. You saw the picture of my intake after I cleaned it in my other thread. That was a bitch to clean. I wouldn't want that crap back in there.

Yea, that is the condensation from the winter time and it will gum up your intake pretty fast.

Yea, I am glad I don't have to do this now. I might still do it this summer though and check my egr ports. I think one or both are clogged a bit.
