Hi folks,
I've removed my intake manifold to replace the vent tube, clean up a BUNCH of cruddly oil residue, and do a few other things. When I removed the manifold I took a look in the runners and they all appeared to be wet with fuel. The ports on the cylinder head looked similar. I got a set of rebuilt M50 injectors about two years ago and installed them, but I'm pretty sure the manifold has never been off the car. All 6 ports look the same. I'm wondering if the residue is normal after 29 years, if it looks like the injectors may be leaking, or if there's something else I should investigate while this is off. The car runs perfectly and aside from an occasional failure to start on the first try, has no real issues. Pics below, sorry for potato quality.
Thanks!
