Throttle Position Sensor
It started over a year ago when the idle and shifting started acting up. When I went to replace the sensor it was covered in a dark brown oily consistency fluid. I assumed that fluid caused the sensor to malfunction. I replaced the sensor and it went back to normal. I checked about 6 months ago and the same fluid was in there, everything was working fine, just wanted to relook it. I cleaned it all up and just looked the other day and the same **** was in there. Would the hell could it be? It doesn't have a gas smell.

Only thing it can be is oil. No other fluids pass through the tb there.
It's probably coming from the PCV valve. Most guys change it to a fixed Prague one and put in a catch can.
