Thread: Oil Dip Stick...

Quick question. Would this cause your car to throw some smoke out the exhaust. Maybe i should hook it up to my intake on the turbo. I was driving my car around a bit & car smoke's abit. Wondering if it's due to the recirculation valve hose not being hook up or there is something wrong with the turbo. Which iam leaning more over the recirculation valve. What you guy's think? (I have the same exact hose as the one in the picture.)

The smoke is probably fuel. Like I said before, venting to atmosphere on a draw-thru setup will cause the car to run rich (blow smoke). Hook the line back up somewhere after your MAF.

I did the same thing the first time I hit boost, blew the dipstick out and enough oil onto the manifold to smoke out the whole highway behind me, haha.

Keep the stock oil seperator and hook the hoses up like everyone said.

i did that. Still smoking due to when it was rebuilt they didn't clean the housin of remaining oil. So i smoke the hi-way behind me too. lol. I just got to drive the car abit more ofthen to burn out all the remaing oil. Thanks guy's.

that doesnt sound quite right?

VE valve cover on a highport DE!?

the smoke come's & goes, #1 injector plug was not getting ground the wire was ripped. So iam going to fix it today. It just smoke's when iam not throttling it. but sometimes it dont smoke, it like it come & goes.

Nevermind, iPhone sux..

intermittent anything is very hard to diagnose

what color smoke? from where? the exhaust?

sometimes it's black/white & sometimes it's blue, yeah from the exhaust.. Iam gessing the turbo needs new seals thats what RB20 (andy) told me.so iam saving the money so i can get it fixed. but first got to pay my plate's..lol
