Metal shavings - Hyundai Performance Forums

from my intake after taking it back off I noticed a few metal shavings on the edge of the piping!!! I'm pissed

If a few shavings dropped in my motor would it have hurt it?

Shoudl i do a oil change right away and a compression test and such.. HLEP ME OUT!

Umm.. it wouldn't be good... were did the shavings come from?

What good will doing an oil change do if they were in your intake?

They would have gone in your throttle body, intake manifold, fuel rail, and would have stopped at the injectors.

If they clogged your injectors, you would know it.

Uhhhh bro hope that they didnt make it all the way through to your pistons or skipped everything and exited on the exhaust stoke. If the shrapnel found its way into the piston lans there will be touble.

Hey, Kirk, re-read your post and tell me if you see the problem. If you don't I'll let you in on it later.
