So my car started smoking the other day, I thought it might be coming from the valley plate. I remove the intake manifold...



I removed the valley plate and put some black silicon all along the gasket. I was just about to put the intake manifold back on when I found this...

(Extractor to the rescue!)
and this...



Anyone know where to find these two rubber pieces? Is it a dealer item?

 

Also where do I get the oil pressure sensor? I want to get it tomorrow. Thanks.

 

i bet you can find it at the dealer, thats a bummer man :/

 

Oil Pressure sender any auto parts store CAN GET (may not have in stock). As far as the other pieces, my ***** did that as well...

All you have to do is make those two pipes go into one (it is not a special check valve or anything). I just went to the Help section at Auto Zone and ended up basically using a T-Fitting to get it back together and some hoses (the stock pieces were hard plastic and I slipped rubber hose over them and lightly clamped it).

 

i might have one for ya.get back to ya manana

 

now is a good time to install a ls6 valley cover! or buy a catch can or something!!

 

to the dealer...oil pressure sensor u can get from the dealer last time i bought one it was about 70$...make sure u go to sears and get a socket for the sensor cause its abnormal size and using a wrench 9 times out of 10 u will break it again when you torque it down.

 

yea just get a catch can.

 

Where do you put it? Inline with the pcv hose?

 

Yeah, they said it would be $69.18. What do I ask for at Sears? Oil pressure sensor socket?

 

i have done mine direct into the catch can with mesh filters, then turned my pcv valve 90 degrees facing up and into 2 fuel filters and then the intake. i catch some real nasty oil

 

where you having an oil leak jason?

 

I was having an oil leak right at the rear of the intake somewhere...which just so happens to be exactly where the corroded rubber pcv coupling is located.

Before I found that split piece, I had already removed the valley plate and put some black rtv all around the gasket, so I shouldn't have any more leaks.

 

Stealership wants $124 for this piece:

(for the entire tube)

So I am going to makeshift replace this:
