I’ve been chasing misfires for a while - 304,305,306 - all one the one side - and P2282 - Air Leak Between Throttle Body and Intake


I pulled the intake off today - to find oil seeping out of the value cover bolt near cylinder #4 intake port.


I don’t mind a small oil leak - but I will go through the pain to pull and reset that valve cover if it’s likely the cause of my issue

Any update on this? Noticed a leak on my driver side valve cover at the very back. Drips down near the turbo.

Turned out to be a ECU tuning solution- my BBK throttle body is too much of the ecu to self adjust - added that to the tuning
