    Oil in throttle body?

    Hey guys, Got car back from mechanic turns out something was caught up around the throttle sensor or something. And the car was running @ 48% throttle he found the issue and now runs at 98% throttle. So much better. It does have a bit of a rough idle so i might also try cleaning intake and...

    Oil in throttle body?

    Oil in throttle body?

    Hey mate thanks for the reply, I just looked then and yes its all sludgy, oil was changed about 7000KM ago.. and the pipe that the oil is going into the intake from is the pipe coming from the pcv valve it think.. Could it need a flush or am I looking at more serious problems? Cheers!

    nice holden wheels

    Personal preference hey guys.. I was actually considering them for my car even no they are not genuine. They would be worth a *** load if they were genuine seeing Holden only most likely has one or two sets for the Coupe60 proto type.. But they are pretty good copies if you ask me.
