Whats the deal with the oil coming into the intake from the PCV? I thought this was only a problem on F/I cars? How do I make it stop?

they all do it, my motor has 675 miles on it, and i had to pull the intake off, because it was leaking, and all the intake ports already had a light coating of oil on them

Install an oil separator.

You can make one for under $20 with parts from Lowes. Do a search.

Wasn't there also a mod that could be done to the valve cover so that the oil would drain better and not pool by the PCV valve? I seem to remember hearing something like this before.
