Hey all, first time poster!

I have a 94 Sahara with a bit of a problem: I have an oily air filter, like its coming back out of my intake. Im not sure if this is a problem related to valves or piston rings. Also my engine makes a bit of a grumbling while running, the engine runs and idles completely smooth but I guess the only way to describe it is that the engine sounds somewhat like a diesel engine, more from the underneath which would lead me to believe its rings. Maybe its both, any expert ideas?

Thanks for your help, I will definitely be around the forums!

Wow, so many things i havent thought of!

Its just around the middle of the filter, basically directly below where the intake tube is.

Thanks a ton, Ill be checkin for cracks when I put my new shocks on later!!!!

Perhaps that would account for something else it does at well? A lot of times when I start driving, it will start this kind of fluttering noise under the hood that that goes up and down with the accelerator. After maybe 10 minutes it goes away and doesnt start again until I have to restart it another time.

Will deffinitly get the valve among other things today. You guys are great.

Hmmmmm, dude at Checker says it doesnt have a pcv.........any truth to that? I dont have my Haynes handy at work

Yeah its an auto place, not the best but its right across the street.

I am having a tough time even finding one online......any idea where to find one? All I can find is one for a 4cyl and an elbow for a 6..........sorry Im being such a pain......

Replaced that and my vacuum lines and its still doing the same thing. Im not sure what to do next....I replaced plugs, wires, cap, rotor........oh, and I noticed my battery power is going down little by little, Im almost at a quater on the gauge. Is this the battery or alt., or will I need to have them tested to find out?


Thanks to everyone

Yep, found a crack in my exhaust manifold. Do I get a stock replacement or aftermarket headers?
