hella,hella smoke
Alright guys, I need help here. I was driving the car grandma style(shifting at 3k), when I noticed smoke coming from the back. About a hour later, it was really bad, so bad it is embarrasing to drive. I checked the plugs, they were good, any ideas. I have an appointment Friday morning to get my hondata tuned. I need to get it running quick.

Re:hella,hella smoke
need more info cause it can be many things, be more specific
|
Re:hella,hella smoke
blue smoke, I just removed the downpipe, and lots of oil coming from the turbine wheel.

Re:hella,hella smoke
Time for a turbo rebuild, unless your oil return is backing up really bad, or you have way to much oil pressure feeding the turbo.

Re:hella,hella smoke
I got a 3-an line, my oil pressure gauge is only reading around 30 lbs at idle, I had the turbo on for about 8 months now.

Re:hella,hella smoke
well, if its not your oil return then you need to get your turbo rebuilt buddy
|
Re:hella,hella smoke
Actually, I am going to buy a new turbo probably.

Re:hella,hella smoke
i don't know why no one ever says this but have you checked to make sure you're venting crankcase pressure somehow? If not, pressure builds up in the crankcase and the oil gets forced up the oil drain into the turbo and then you start getting oil in the intake, which causes the smoke. the pcv is insufficient if it's connected to your intake/manifold (the boost pressure just forces it closed). disconnect the pcv completely and see if that helps. if it does, you're a step in the right direction. there might be another valve breather besides the pcv that you can also use for venting crankcase pressure. just connect those to a breather tank.

Uhm.. I partly agree about PCV - but.. this is why you put fitting on oil pan on top of it - so oil from pan cannot back up!
