|
|
Any ideas on why I would have a slight oil leak on both sides of my Pop off valve ?
Runs fine smokes on startup I'm thinking its burning off the oil inside turbo..
My boost gauge read + 6 on full boost n can go as low as -20 when not boosting.. |

Yeah sounds like compressor side rings are worn.. _________________ 80 Turbo - Slightly Modified |

The turbo has about 10,000 miles on it since a rebuild n previous owner always let it idle for a bit b4 shutdown and used synthetic oil but the rebuilt was done 30 years ago.. |
