Question:
Can extended idling cause oil to puddle in the bottom of the intake?
Text:
Did a cooling system flush by slow bleed. idled the 194 for about 20 minutes in 5 minute segments.
Right after the cooling system flush, I was having some trouble with fuel leaks on a Re-man Rochester BV. the carb is freshly re-manufactured. so I pulled it off and took it back to National. I noticed a puddle of clean motor oil in the bottom of the plenum below the carb. I checked the PCV hose as a possible cause but it's dry. The head had a complete service about a year ago. this car is progressing in a restoration and is becoming more active. compression is 1) 140 2) 145 3) 145 4) 150 5) 142 6) 142. any ideas? the engine seems to run fine.
