I made sure all the "up" sides were pointing up, and that none of the gaps lined up.


Which hose would be routed wrong to where its pressuring the crankcase?

I did everything from a full head rebuilt along with the bottom end. I'm bot home right now so I can't check my car, but I took several pictures of all the hoses and made sure I put them back exactly how they went. Im almost to the point of saying screw it and just buying another motor. But that's a lot of money going to waste.


I'll go ahead and check it out tomorrow morning and keep you guys updated on what's going on.

I've changed it twice already. So I don't know what else to check. This thing is pissing me off.

Yeah I'm gonna do that today. Would it be a big deal if I were to plug that hose up?

That's what I'm thinking. There's another hose right next to the hose with the pcv valve that might be sucking up some oil, but I'm not too sure.

I forgot to mention, head is fully rebuilt too. New valve seals and valves were sandblasted. its a fully rebuilt motor. Somehow the oil is getting from the valve cover into the intake manifold.

My car is getting oil into the intake manifold and I have no idea why. Did you solve your problem? I'd like to know what was causing it.

So my 95 ST had a rod knock and was burning oil so I figured I'd do a full rebuild. I replaced the pistons, rod and main bearings, and new rings. The the engine was over-bored to .50mm and the crank to .25 over-bore, which called for bigger pistons and bearings. I followed Smaay's rebuild thread. Everything looked good. So once the rebuild was done I cranked the motor and it turned on very quickly. And for the first 700 miles I noticed the oil level wasn't changing so I thought it wasn't burning any more oil. But then when it was at 1,200 I checked the dipstick and it was missing about a quart. I've changed the pcv valve and its still burning oil. I opened up the intake manifold cover and its full of oil. I don't know what else to do. I'm thinking Im gonna have to throw away a lot of money and just get rid of this motor and get a used one that will hopefully not burn any oil. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do? Car runs perfectly fine, its just that it burns oil. I did a compression test and it reads a little over 160 on all cylinders. No leak down test has been done yet.

get some intake cleaner and spray the iac first, if that doesnt work then proceed to buy a new one

i have a 97 ST and ever since my friend moved the rear wiper from its original position to the down position (with her hand, she manually moved the damn thing because she thought it was supposed to be down the whole time) its been acting up and it doesnt work right anymore. i dont want to take it to a shop and pay for it since it seems like an easy fix, but before i go and start taking things apart, i wanna know what i need to do. if i put the wiper in its appropriate position and then turn the wiper on, it will move towards the left instead of going right and eventually is completely off the window. so how do i fix this?
