oil leak after i took the turbo off.

[Jason84]

well after i had the local shop install my exhaust and shocks/springs. i have a slight oil leak. it doesnt leak when its running or not running it only leaks right when i turn it off for a bit.

is it just a loose bolt or bad gasket ??
i didnt try to tighten it yet because i dont have those size wrenches yet need to buy some. but which bolt would it be? i see 2 bolts on the turbo i know ones an oil line and one is a coolant/water line.

can u see where its coming from? check both the oil feed line and the return line. the feed line could be a little loose or broke, also the gaskets could be bad on the return line.

-There're 4 lines on the turbo, front and back are coolant, top and bottom are oil, there are 2 cruch washers(copper) on each line, try tighten the bolt more, if it still leak, then you'll have to replace the washers.

ill check out the washers and see how tight the lines are.
