need help/advice (sludge in mah engine!)

[Tbolt]

So I was just planning on removing my intake to paint it while I replace the injectors and the intake boot and a couple hoses (and all related gaskets) but while removing the intake sludge feel off the intake manifold and into the valve chamber...


what the hell should I do? I am thinking computer duster but I figured I should post here any advice would be great.

also i noticed some oily stuff in my throttle body, any reason why its there? should I just simple green it and not worry?

Shop-vac for the grime that fell inside your intake ports.

Speculating (and that's all it is) the throttle body stuff is coming from your crankcase ventilation system.

yea, definitely use a shop vac before reassembly, the vac will suck out all of that debris. If you will not be reassembling for a little bit, take some painter's tape or masking tape and tape up those holes so no other debris or foreign objects get down into or onto the valves.... last thing you want is shit in there upon start up...

yeah, mask the intake port/holes or stuff clean shop towels in there.... shopvac that gunk out, maybe clean up that head a lil bit :P
