  • P&P INTAKE MANIFOLD

    I have P&P my own intake manifolds. I did this with a dremel. I thought I had cleaned the intakes really good but now I have found otherwise. There is alot of metal shavings very very small kinda more like metal dust at the top of the upper intake. I started my car and pulled it back apart. Ran it for maybe a couple min. Is there any chance this metal could have made its way all the way down the engine? If so what would happen.

    I did find a little of this on the lower intake. What if it made its way through the head and through the valves? Im kinda scared.

      I was just paranoid I guess. My mechanic looked at it and said its fine. He said theres a little bit on the intake manifold but nothing touched the heads.

        Open up the pcv valve, when all my port work was done I went to change it and found metal shavings in there.
        I cleaned it out and replaced it.

          a good way to clean all that dust out is with soap/water, it will remove debri better than gasoline/solvent will...
