    oil in exhaust manifold

    i hope your right. i was just worried. i dont want anything to get sucked into the exhaust and mess up my new turbo. i just need to make it a few weeks. when i was doing the compression test on cylinder 3, it just whined instead of turning over. it was odd. thanks -pete

    HELP!! Power Steering

    yea... i flushed my fluid before and it still whined. but then i removed the reservoir and used degreaser to get all the gunk out of it. flush it out from the drain so it will be forced out. you should be able to see through the screen. after that it never squealed again.
