I was also thinking that, thought I typed rules out the intake side of the turbo.

Yeah, if it was the turbo that is bad, it would be leaking oil straight into the exhaust on the hotside. The oil would never even get into the combustion chamber.

It is possible for oil to go out the compressor side and through the intake, but it doesn't look like it.



Oh and why dosen't your car idle? Mine idles at a perfect 750rpm and I have no emissions and ported throttle body.

You've seen my car, if it's cold it won't idle at start up, the Rtek ECU revoves the AEW. (Accel. Engine Warmup). Just a PITA, i'll start looking for the Vac leaks sometime, mostly too lazy.

Probably not vacume leaks, your idle adjust isn't set right.

Remind me next time I'm near your car, I'll take a look at it.

[quote name='nismo convert' date='Aug 28 2005, 04:15 PM']Well here are the pic, the intake side is clean, and dry no oil, so I think that would rule out the turbo.... maybe i'm running too much premix? I donno, i'm using a 10:1 ratio.

The plugs are basically bone dry.

That's a juicy amount of premix



I was using 250-300 mL per fill up

I forget but I calculated that I was suppost to be using 250 mL per 40L fill up or something to get a slightly above ratio than whats the norm



Cause it's always better to be safe than sorry



But even though I leaned of the side of error by going 250, I still couldn't really tell if I actually got 250 out of the bottle so I'd just pour roughly 300







Long story short I considered myself to be using too much premix.. But at least it was safe

I really don't think this is the cause of the smoking tho, so it's bigger turbo, or rebuilt time this winter, now I need abeater.
