Hey guys, you might remember my oil leak help thread, well, turns out it seems like either the oil feed or oil return line isnt hooked up. Basicaly, for those who don’t know, I’m a turbo install virgin, and I could use some help just finishing this T28 on a Ca18 job I have been working on. I have a brutallll oil leak, thought it was a blown turbo, but since its not coming out the exhuast, I doubt its a blown turbo, and theres no smoke or anything. So basically, I believe I simply forgot to hook up an oil line, and I could use some help hooking this thing up so I’m good to go. I go to university in peterborough, but the car is in Whitby, and I could come home on a weekend if someone was willing to give me a hand just finishing this thing up. I am willing to pay some cash or case of beer or w/e for someone just hook up this line for me. Thanks guys, located in whitby, let me know if you can work on it maybe easter weekend for me or another weekend. Its greatly appreciated, and I have put soo much work into this car so far, and really just want this thing running to relive some stress.
well thats easy… you have 2 oil lines… one oil feed and one oil return
the feed line is a smaller pressure line that goes in the top on the center section and the return goes in the bottom…
just buy the sounds of your virginess I would assume you forgot to put the little copper crush washers in on the oil feed line… and thats where the oil is comming from… I would ALMOST bet money on it.
Want to explain a little more about these washers?
they are the ones i was talking about. they look like the ac line. that goes on the bottom of the turbo
