Hiya, thanks for the suggestions. As I mentioned, I have a fuel pressure gauge and the reading is steady at roughly 34PSI on idle, and rises when throttle is applied.

I suppose it could be a leaky injector though? That would be unfortunate. But you would think that if it were actually running rich, the OBD should throw a check engine code at me for running rich, wouldn't it?

Anyway, I'll check the PCV, flametrap, etc. but how would that cause an emission problem?

And nope, no EGR!

I'm going to compression test the cylinders first chance.
