oil residue in turbo intake pipe
I took off my air cleaner assembly and turbo intake plastic pipe to get at the coolant hose that i snapped while taking off the coolant :tu:bottle....
I saw some oil in the plastic intake tube going in to the cast aluminium intake elbow... is this normal.....the oil was clear and not dirty |
Yep. The crankcase vents into the intake right in front of the turbo so there is oily residue on all of your intercooler piping and boots. This is why the boots rot away after a while and also why they will pop off sometimes. Just clean the rubber boots up real good and put some hairspray on them, and reattach. usually does the trick if they are popping off a lot.

thanks
i had to use heat gun on low to get the tube back on the cast elbow I tried pushing it on and could not slide over the ring:tu::tu: |
Yeah it's a PITA to get back on, but it will go on.
|
thats why people do a ccv relocate.

Would it hurt anything if I pulled that tube out of my piping and just had an atmospheric/roadway dump. Don't worry I don't give a shit what the tree huggers think about my splashed oil going on the road, they can suck on my exhaust tip.

I've seen a couple guys welded fittings on the exhaust downpipe and had it vent into the exhaust so it's just burned off. |
i have heard of many people do that is as well welding it into an exhaust sounds cool.....i just plugged mine up and went to lowes and bought about 10' of hose and moved it to back
