In M50, the valve cover gaskets go bad, these can cause oil to leak adn air to get in- also, many pipes and connectors under the intake can go bad over time. I replace all mine on both M50s, was well worth it.
Perhaps injectors or FPR. Is drivability perfect at all times?
Ethanol is everywhere here in kY with no labeling-no choice. Valve cover gaskets only had a small leak when I changed plugs. No vacumn leaks. my indy and I checked and repaced at least one hose. No help
