oil problem
 

hey i just installed my turbo it is a t25 and when i crank it there is oil shooting out of the down pipe i took the pipe off and left just the turbo housing and oil is shooting out of the down pipe of the turbo houseing any help what could be causing this thanks

Re:oil problem
 

ur seals in ur turbo are prolly fucked up. Do i smell a "rebuild" haha

Re:oil problem
 

how much is typical rebuild cost for t-25?

Re:oil problem
 

either the oil return line is blocked or kinked or bending upwards at some point, or you have insufficient crankcase ventilation. if you don't have some way of venting pressure from the crankcase, the oil pan will be pressurized and oil will shoot past the seals. good luck.

Re:oil problem
 

how do you vent the crank case

Re:oil problem
 

Put a little breather filter on it.

Re:oil problem
 

what do i put the filter on

Re:oil problem
 

i highly doubt that is the problem. he was just turning it over.. not running it

seals are whooped. u can buy a rebuild kit for like 120$

Re:oil problem
 

another reason may be the oil pressure is too high going to the turbo. this problem has been posted before where people have used the needle valve to lower the pressure. try it out.

could it be that the return line is running like at a straight line maybe a centimeter up hill but it ain't running down hill though
