Update: one of my students posed the question, “does oil burn hotter or cooler than gasoline?”. Great question. Answer is cooler. “Can’t we just use a thermal camera to see which exhaust port is cooler. Great idea although it won’t answer the larger question it will isolate the problem. Ran the car with better ventilation and checked with a thermal camera. Unfortunately, there was not difference in exhaust temps.

We then ran a quick smoke test just to make sure all intake components were sealed. Found 2 major vac leaks post MAF we fixed those and should be able to run more tests tomorrow.
