I've been on the hunt to find out why my SN95 keeps fouling a plug on No. 1 cylinder, and I stumbled over this:

Don't know if this is my problem, but it certainly explains why my intake manifold's runners were soaked in sooty, wet oil.

Just thought I'd pass it along, to save others a headache.

good info...

I had to install an in-line filter as well years ago. I can see how much oil vapor condensation collects in my single port 3.8. Seafoaming by sucking it in through the pcv line is my method. One can in gas tank, one can to pull into upper intake manifold. It works so F'n great. My copper plugs have been lasting long intervals. Good link-

^ +1. I seafoam just about every other oil change myself.

Installed one of these- Helps keep intake much cleaner for sure.

What is that?

 

[robb15033]

It is a STEEDA oil filter/separator. Air & oil vapors leave the pcv valve, travel through the filter/drier which catches the oil vapors and condenses it back into oil droplets, then only oil-less vapors enter the intake for combustion again. The condensed oil is drained from the bottom after it accumulates.

how often do you have to change it?

You just drain it. The drain is at the bottom. I drain mine every weekend.

I've had this on my SVO for years, got it from Home Depot. Keeps oil out of the throttle body, vam and the turbo

plus steeda's broke on me and they refused to replace it.... i hate steeda. what a bunch of ass-wipes.
