turbo help...
Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2012 7:15 pm
G'day guys.
I'm in a bit of a pickle... I just installed an after market turbo on my cruiser and got all the piping, oil lines and what not hooked up. I haven't done the exhaust on it yet but I thought is start her up and see how she goes. I didn't do any thing stupid like revving the ringer out of it but I gave it a few short revs and some very fine oil like substance came out the back and onto my firewall.
It's like oil with thinners in it and I can't figure out where it would be coming from or if it is condensation mixed with soot.
Does anyone know if this is normal or not, even if it had an exhaust would it normally do this anyway?
Any help would be great... Thanks
Jamie
