i get blue smoke out my tailpipe when i shift after being in boost at all. i also get it when i i go into boost and left off the gas and then get back on it.
now i know i'm burning oil. i'm pretty sure its my turbo even though its only got 16,000 on it. i have oil in the compressor housing, intake and IC pipe but NO shaft play at all and the turbo still boost fine. any other ideas
heres my other problem. i did a compression test and found that my 1,2,&3 cylinders are at 150 psi and my 4th is @ 90. i dropped oil into it and it didn't make it go up at all so from what i understand this means that it prolly isn't a piston ring. and most likely a valve or two...this is an engine with only 16000 miles on it....am i right in thinking this?
not sure if the two are related any ideas or help
thanks
