oil everywhere

[John DeCampli]

i have a 98 gsx and a new re-man turbo and today driving i see tons of smoke not from my exhaust but from oil soaking the whole underneath of the car it looks like it started from around the turbo but i took the turbo and all the piping apart and cant find anything wrong any ideas? what this could be?

Also my car still runs fine and still good oil pressure

Maybe a missing gasket somewhere? Are you sure it's motor oil and not gear oil?

 

[eclipsalon]

have you checked your dipstick? just curious, maybe the leak is elsewhere

 

[DSMnoobsause]

Yes what is the oil level? Is your turbo drain tube cracked?

 

[John DeCampli]

Yeah it's motor oil it sucked alot out to and I checked the return line

Put it all back together. Make sure you have oil in the car. Start the car and see if you can see where its leaking from. Dont just start taking stuff apart because thats where you think it came from.

Spray and clean all the oil dripping, add some more oil, turn it on and check where it's coming from. Like already said, don't start taking stuff apart without knowing where the problem is coming from.

Sounds like a gaskets missing. Clean everything, assemble it back together and start checking for leaks.

 

[John DeCampli]

I already checked for leaks while it was running I'm
thinking maybe it only does it during boost my guarage dint get soaked while it was running
