Do these pics show symptoms of a PCV problem?
I've used Mobile 1 exclusively since 5,000 miles, up to the current 196,000 miles. As such, I thought my motor was immune from PCV gunk and I never paid any attention to the threads about PCV problems. My throttle body failed a couple of weeks ago (I think it failed, anyway). I started looking at how difficult it will be to replace, and see this gunk build up on it and in the general area (17.5 years worth). Is this oil residue spritzing out of a leak in the boost tube, indicating a problem with the PCV system routing oil mist back into the intake?
