I just recently installed an intake in my 4th gen and today i noticed that my back bumper is starting to have this film. It looks like some type of shiny film from the emissions but the thing is that it never happended b4 and i wonder if it was because of the intake and if i could do anythign to fix it. thanx

 

DId you accidently allow some dust/metallic saw dusts in the tb?
open up the tb and see if it's clean or not..

 

Would that be the only problem? I will try to check out the throttle body tomorrow morning. I installed it in my friends garage, so i dont think they could be any dust but i will check anyways. Oh yea will a towel be ok to clean it?

no water and oil please!

 

Thanx for the heads up man. Just finished cleaning out the tb. Damn there was a lot of black dust in there. Hopefully that will solve the problem. Thanx again. But if it does continue, would u think it would be the filter that was causing it?

replace the hose from your valve cover with one of those ricey *** pep-boys breather caps. And then plug the nipple on the intake pipe where the hose was attached previously.

 

Yeah...just to not get oil in tb..on the long run
