Black Crud ?

Ask him how the back intake cover looks ? its the ccvc or pcv ? that oil separator goes down to the oil pan and a little hose joins it at the bottom ,if u look at the bottom of the oil pan make sure he blows that out with brake cleaner or starting fluid .The crud or clog looks pretty dry mine was oily .The other guy must not have cleaned it ?Go back to the first guy and ask him why he didn't replace the oil separator TOO? Show him that pic? for a grand You should of had the whole ccvc replaced ?The intake back cover ,new os and all new hoses and be good for a few years hahah Some people say do it as a preventive thing .But Who does that?I just went back and looked at that pic did he really try to wrap it in foil and tape it back together???? it looks that way??
