So the oil is at the lower connection for the AOS? The car does not seem to have more than expected smoke during start ups. Although it always had more smoke than other cars I own.


It's a characteristic of H6 or flat 6 engines, completely normal, I'd leave the AOS alone then and just replace the maf, see if that doesn't cure what ails ya..
