Mine doesnt like to idle in the cold so I have to give it some extra throttle for about the first 5 mins.



I have noticed some oil coming out of the mini filter I put on the filler neck so I think I'm going to put a catch can there or a hose and raise up the filter a bit.
I warmed it up fully, and it still wouldn't hold an idle, so I'm going to look around for an exposed nipple (teehee!) when I get home.



I just put that mini filter on there. It had a quite large diameter hose connection, so I kept the stock piece that curves at a 90* and clamped it to the neck, I positioned it to curve upward, and fit the filter over the end of that hose with a clamp. The the filter is pointing upward, maybe 2-3" up from the hole in the neck. I hope that makes sense. I'll check on it every now and then to see if anything is getting out.

You should probably reset your tps once you get it warmed up... I think I adjusted the idle screw a little too. The oil that was coming out from mine might have been from the last time I put oil in it, I dont know. I havent seen the car in a few weeks and my memory is terrible.

Looking at the above pic, I think I might know which caps I forgot to plug. By the time I was finished, I'm sure my brain was already asleep.
