I have a BAIL

I invented a new word, BAIL

stands for BIG *** INTAKE LEAK

hehe. Found it tonight, i sprayed starting fluid toward where the EGR is, engine revs up 1-2k RPMS! Pretty bad intake leak.

Not sure what exactly is leaking, could be the EGR valve (i just put a new gasket on that though, plus there is a blockoff plate underneath it), or the lower intake gasket (stupid metal crushable piece of crap)

One other possibility is the oil injectors. I removed them all and replaced them with bolts with teflon tape around them. Maybe I need something better?

Oh this is a headache
