Spitting Unburnt Oil Out The Exhaust

I noticed that when I started my car today that a lot of oil got spat out, and it left a 60cm x 30cm oil patch behind the exhaust. It then proceeded to burn a lot of oil as there was a lot of black smoke coming out.

I got hesitation all the way through the rev range until the engine had warmed up and then it has been fine ever since... No more burning oil, no more oil ejaculations :)

I am not sure why this would have happened. Does anyone have any ideas on what may have caused it?

The only thing I can think of is that a mate was pumping the accelerator while the engine was off the night before. Is there some way that this may have caused it?

Thanks for your help!

if its definitely oil then your turbo is fecked mate... i'd suggest it'd be a combination of moisture in the exhaust and fuel, and it looks black due to the carbon build up through the exhaust system.

aaahh I think you may be right! good thinking!

thanks mate!

(wishfully thinking that its actually moisture not oil!)

Do you have std ecu or aftermarket?

I have an aftermarket ecu and my cold start requires to be retuned, booked in for next week. Sounds like mine, has to much fuel that will foul up the plugs if not driven once started. You get a 30cm trail of black crap behind the exhaust. Once warm the ecu switches out of "cold start-up" and performs fine. Nothing to worry about, just get the cold start tune rechecked.

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
