Up-Date: Oil Spray Under Hood
Just got done doing a closer inspection. The oil residue is confined to the cast aluminum intake elbow (throttle body) and it's mounting flange, along with the spray present under the hood. The spray pattern on the hood is in the area directly over the intake elbow. When the motor cools down enough I will disconnect the plastic cool charge line and inspect it interior for residue if any. Where or how can engine oil contaminate this connection? I would like to understand this problem before an inevidable visit to the dealer. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.
