actually, i'm not really sure. hehe, i missed that.

seemsto me that more moving parts = more headaches

 

That still doesn't explain why you would have oil in your coolant and the color of the smoke would have a blue tint to it (which is why I asked).

If the oil is getting from the inlet line into your exhaust then either your turbo seals are shot or there is blockage in the return line that does not allow the oil to flow out so it goes to the weakest point, your seals. This blockage does not have to be something physical, it can be too much pressure in the bottom end (as Tony well knows). Try pulling your PCV valve out and shake it. If it rattles then it's good, if not, replace it because it might be stuck and it's not allowing the pressure in the bottom end to escape.

hih

 

ahh yes, the wonderful world of positive crank case pressure, although mine was caused by jacked up rings, causing massive amount of blow-by & compression numbers well Under 100

 

the pvc valve is good. i think that im using the wrong feed line. I think that there is to mich oil going in but not enough coming out. I think that it is not flowing smoothy but i could be wrong. also the turbo does not spin with i give it gas, does that mean anything.

 

means something unpleasent...

 

Are you just sitting still when you try to see if the turbo will spool? Read my other post about having to put a load on the engine.

What size return line are you using on your turbo? Possible to post pics of this setup?

 

technically, couldn't a "load" count as simply letting out the clutch and quickly depressing it again... allowing the car to lurch foreward? i mean, if so, someone could try taking a look @ the time of the hop...

 

You can create a load on the engine while sitting still. I do it all the time at the track and it is referred to as preloading. If you pull the eBrake and let the clutch out just to where it is grabbing, but not pulling you forward (revving to keep the car running) then you can rev the engine as much as you want to see if it will spool. The small amount of resistance being caused by the clutch will cause a load. Be aware that you can burn your clutch out doing this and that most that preload have a good clutch in the car (ACT XTR6 here).

 

hehe, i never thought of that. lol, i feel dumb. it'd be worth a try though. i mean, one time (CAREFULLY) shouldn't burn the clutch bad.

 

how do i know if my turbo seals are gone.
