I really hope that it's only a gasket! I think I've read somewhere that a problem with swirl flaps can manifest as an oil leak! Also, I've read horror stories where swirl flap would get in a cylinder head and melt which could result with a need for new motor!
I am seriously thinking about buying a delete kit for swirl flaps. From what I understand, fuel consumption might get higher and power can go down a bit, but compared to a need for a new engine this seems like a small drawbacks. Is there anybody here on the forum who did this?
