Ok, so I built the leak tester and found a leak at the tb, so I took it apart and replaced the shaft seals, put the thing back on, did the leak test again and one of the fuel injectors were leaking, so I put all new seals on the injectors, the o-ring and the intake manifold seals. Performed the leak test again, and it is now leaking from somewhere around the top left corner of the engine, by the space in between the tb and valve cover. I have no idea what could be leaking.
Also my idle is pretty bad, it idles at 1000 at stutters like its gonna die even at 1000, could this be my o2 sensor?
All help is appreciated! :dsm: :laser: :talon:
 
as far as your new leak it is most likely coming from where your PCV valve goes into your intake manifold because your PCV valve is a one way check valve and if you pump up the system it will come out of thier. Mine is leaking out of my TPS sensor ehhh so Im ordering a new one I hope that works.

There is a shaft seal just under the TPS, so instead of forking out the money to replace the TPS check that seal, sometimes they will just get hard and crack like mine did. Thanks for the info, I will tighten the PCV valve.
 
oh my leak is def coming from the TPS housing when I pump it or start the car I can put my finger around the right side of the TPS and I can feel the leak. About the PCV deal It's more than likely not coming from the PCV its self just the port on the intake manifold I dont think you can do anything about it except put a tighter hose clamp on your hose.
