M50 Manifold + clean up!


I started the car again a few weeks ago and it ran horribly! I know that the m52 was burning a decent amount of oil and now it wasn't running good, perfect excuse for a m50 swap and some maintenance!

The stuff to do:
- PCV/CCV
- Valve cover gasket
- Spark Plugs
- Oil Change
- Move Battery to the rear
- M50 intake manifold
- Clean engine bay
- Injector o-rings/clips

Some stuff I found when I started taking things apart:

Oil in the intake manifold?!



Followed by oil traces in the intake tract!



And one of the injectors was not in all the way and was also missing a clip. That would explain why it was running poorly.



Will update as more gets done.
