Message	I pulled my plenum today to change out a bad IACV and noticed that the throttle bodys apperared to have water around them, after pulling the intake out, I have found that it is the top oil "Breathers" I suppose, leaking creamy oil and water into the intake. Pulling off my oil cap, I found some under there as well. However, those are the only places I have found it, None on the dipstick and none I can see through the cap hole. Any ideas as to what the cause is? Hoping not a blown head gasket. But I lose about a quart of oil every oil change, no coolant though. The car has been getting short runs to work, with very little warm up in this cold weather. Possible condensation? The PCV system is bypassed as well. connection? Thanks

(n/m) - LJZTT 10:33:55 01/13/13 it is under a slight vacuum - aliaZ 15:28:23 01/13/13 Hmm..
