Sluge build up on plenum and throttle body
 

Ok guys, iam lost, i removed throttle body, and behind it all i saw was black! there is a good 1/4 of sluge sitting in the plenum and throttle body. How does that get there? and another thing, the bolts to remove the plenum, 2 of them are stripped. They are star keys and i have no idea of how to remove them! i need to get them off, soon! any ideas on either of the 2? :confused: by the way, its a 305 tpi

the lsudge could be old oil, if your pcv is leaking or bad the engine could be sucking in oil through it. As for the stuck bolts, I guess you could try easy-outs ( drill bit looking things that have reverse cut threads). Hopefully someone else an help you better.

Hay thanks, it probally is the pvc valve, the car hasnt been touched in the 136000 miles, so yah, a buddy has those back-outs, so hopefully he'll come by tonight and i can get the plenum and runners off by tomomrw morining
