ok i was driving to school and i was doing a WOT pull to get across a highway.
at like 5k the car started to stumble, and then took off like normal. then when i shifted a huge cloud of smoke.
i couldn't even see the back of my car there was so much smoke, no noises, or extreme power loss. just tons of smoke.
so i coasted alittle, then put it into 2nd to try and make it up a hill, and it was putting out lots of smoke, but hardly any at idle.
so i pull into a church, and check stuff out.
nothing seems out of place, but the line to the wastgate was off.
but i was keeping an eye on the boost and stuff, and it never jumper or hit anything over about 10lbs on the factory gauge.
i get towed home, and i started the car up to let it warm up.
did the compression test.
cylinder 4 farthest from timming belt to cylinder 1 closest to timming belt.
128/118/125/130 anyone else have numbers to compair these with
engine has 144k on it.
im ganna run cylinder 3 again to make sure i let it fill up all the way.
Ok on a side note.
last night, i was test fitting an intake pipe i was making. i found a hose that wasn;t hooked up. its the other like that plugs into the intake tube, not the crank case relief but the otherone. so i hooked that up.
also, i was doing a boost leak test, and i couldn;t get more then 10lbs, and i had a loud air leak noise comming from around the turbo. but the air wouldn;t just rush out, it would take alittle to come down from 10lbs, and if i unhooked the fittings it would drop to 0.
so i think its my turbo seals.
but when i was at the church, i pulled the intercooler hose off the turbo outlet, and didn;t feel any oil in it, it felt kindove wet, but no dark oil color or anything.
so im ganna check the charge pipes again and see if there is any oil in them.
any sujestions would be great
