no leakage from any of the cylinders...


enough oil in charge pipes to make drips when i took them off & tilted them at the ground!

I'm going to have to say that the seals in the turbo are bad & going to either need replaced or something along those lines. I'm under the impression that the oil is leaking into the charge pipes, through the cylinders & out the exhaust causing tons of smoke because it's burning it while it can & under boost it's not able to keep up with all the oil so it just shoots it all out the exhaust, causing the minor speckles on windshields of vehicles behind me!

Hopfully i can find soem replacment seals, someone point me to some sites if u can.. if not i'll be using something to seal it up & serarching for another turbo.

as far as the small amounts of coolant comming up missing. I'm thinking that it's the hose that goes from the thermostat housing area to the intake mani.. it's dry rotted & probly a little leaky so i'll be replacing that as well.
