    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    Oh, one other thing i meant to mention, I know you are running without your PCV which is probably working because you (must) have a fairly healthy motor that doesn't have issues and can handle it. This may be why mine couldn't handle being disconnected. I think that being re-routed helps but it...

    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    I'd point at valve seals for you Although, it could be a combination of any number of things but since it occurs at high vacuum....

    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    Yes, we do agree on a few of those things lol. I'm still not quite understanding, I must be over thinking but wouldn't removing the PCV only exaggerate the blowby? Obviously some blowby is acceptable and perhaps with the way your motor is setup it can handle being disconnected and still be at an...

    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    Without getting into a pissing contest I respectfully disagree. I do not know your background or knowledge but you might want to do some searching about the PCV system if you haven't already. Unless I am missing something(which is very possible) disconnecting the PCV proves nothing. Even by your...

    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    Disconnecting the pcv will not make it stop, only change the reason its smoking if anything. Without suction from either the turbo or the throttle body port it will not put "vacuum" on the crankcase and potentially cause the rings to temporarily not make a good seal and thus cause smoking for...

    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    I think the first thing I would do would be valve seals. They are relatively cheap it just takes time to put them in. If it was your turbo you would probably have more oil on your plugs, in your intercooler, or in your exhaust. Yes turbo is easier and very well could be your problem it is just...

    Changing Valve Stem Seals

    Yeh, get a compression tester and just remove the schrader valve. If taken to a garage it will probably be pretty pricey since I think book time on the job is at least 7 hours

    Thought valve seals, but now maybe turbo???

    I am having the same issue. After my motor rebuild it was smoking. I replaced the turbo because of oil in the intercooler and damaged fins. After the turbo replacement there was no change, still smoked. Sometimes it smokes a little on startup sometimes it doesnt. At any rate, I did a compression...

    Blowing smoke :-(

    valve seals, rings, turbo. those are the areas i would look into. do a compression and leak down test. read your plugs. i would think that if it was turbo seal the oil is spraying into the exhaust not the combustion chamber. i could be wrong on this but i would reason that if the oil in in the...

    Starting up club (NC Supra's)

    yeh im familiar with majestic. and i put mine in the garage bc its burning oil like crazy. my next step is replaceing the valve seals. if that doesnt fix it i may just start building my *real* motor, hence the machining question. i didnt think majestic did machining i thought they only did...
