Sup Fozz,
Well i updated the previous threads but basicaly the charge pipes are full of wet oil after my run this morning.. i done a conpression test too on the most likely cylinders to be porked by way of plug fouling and there fine..
Tbh i think its setup to recieve far too much Oil which has blown through the seals... should have drops from the feed on idle and i have a flow be it small but still a 'flow' and thats on idle..imagine on boost
.. honestly think this might be the reason..i will check it soon enough and just hope once adjusted the Rings/seals are still good..all this is causing what could be continious pinking too becasue of the oil situ
all this is bad but not as bad as fecked stem seals/piston rings so i got my fingers crossed.. mechanics and like minded people are saying Turbo seals..lests hope there right
Turbo will come off at whatever...1 to check the insides..alot of grimey crap/oil will indicate blown seals...just oily parts could indicate something else but while its off i can check the outher 4 cylinders for conpression issues too
If indeed it is pinking..having 3.5 injectors and A vortex 12.1 fuel reg/modified stock AFM prolly aint helping matters...oh and all this is on 0 boost, actuators been removed... no boost and what could be pinking
