yesterday i had noticed the white smoke coming out of the rear end and finally looked it over last night i have a coolant leak at one of the barbed fittings on the turbo and an oil leak at the turbo i know i know either to much oil getting into the turbo an honorable newbie question but i am using a 1/8 oil feed line am i still over feeding the turbo or just have a leak,

 

First off; any way you could restructure your post to make more sense?

Are you running a cat on this car?

 

or a dog?







what size is your return line? does it bend in any way or any way maybe it's restricted? do you have an oil pressure gauge? did this problem just start, or has it been like this since you've been boosted?

 

sorry no cat gutted only and i do have a leak just asking on the turbo setup
d16z6,t3 turbo 450 cc injectors and usual fuel ----

 

could you be any more vague? if you know you have a leak, than that's your problem. what are you asking about your turbo set up?

 

I was really questioning the ambiguity of this thread in my first post. Then I just decided to ignore it until more info was provided. Nice to see I'm not the only one in a slight array of confusion with the issues presented.

 

no no no sorry i just needed to know what would be causing this leak cause i am smoking out the tail pipe just giving some spec on the setup i have i just droped the rebuilt motor in 2 weeks ago and i was needing advice the pressue line is a 1/8 line does it need to be bigger and there are no kinks in the line

 

I don't think the feed line being 1/8 is an issue.. the turbo doesn't need that much oil to live.

What grade and kind of oil are you running? Have you checked the setup to make sure no kinks or loose fittings? When does it smoke.. what are you doing when it smokes?

 

if you're positive your oil return isn't restricted in anyway, and it just started doing this although you've been using the same feed line which worked fine before, then more than likely, your seals are bad, and not it's not fuel, fuel burning is a dark color.

 

Agreed.. too much fuel burns black and sometimes will leak water out the back if you've gotten it really out of tune (don't ask how I know this). Running a compression test should have been first on your list.
