rad100 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 checked ur coilpacks? that makes wrx idle if one is missing! checked ur plugs? coz if its missing it would be blowing black smoke for unburnt fuel!

craig R33 Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 coil packs are near new splitfires. i checked all piping and appeared A'okay as i said, simon has it now, i cant check anything, ill keep ya all posted as soon as i find out. cheers for the help all Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/238245-what-the-fk-is-wrong/page/4/#findComment-4168955 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damo_R34 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 ill put my money on a combination of things rather than internals. With internals, they usually go when ur hammering through the rev range, i reckon u have a dud coilpack + cracked cooler pipe, like maybe on the inside of an elbow Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/238245-what-the-fk-is-wrong/page/4/#findComment-4168954 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTROY Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 fecked turbs will pour out white smoke.hey Chad, didnt your piston jam in a perfect position so you could keep driving it? yeah, as you can see in this pic a large piece of the piston broke away but was held in place buy the rings, so under boost the piece was pushed back in to fill the whole, only blew big clouds of white smoke every now and then when i took off from the lights.

Sambo33 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 i had 6 f**ked ringlands in mine, and the funny thing was it idled nice and drove nicely too. it was just boosting it over 4.5k and out came the massive smoke clouds and a full catch can of oil Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/238245-what-the-fk-is-wrong/page/4/#findComment-4168988 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTROY Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 check the deterioration of the top land Chad, looks like it had been running on bad mixtures or timing for awhile Yeah, im pretty sure the cause was a bad puel pump, its was replaced, but obviously it was to late for it and it ended up dying on me, but it also could have been a bad injector as only one piston was like that, all the others were fine.

Ryanrb25 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) Here's what a dirty injector does to a piston. Always pay's to get either brand new injectors or get second hand ones cleaned and flow tested.

shy_s6 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 fecked turbo would cause white smoke, correct? thats only if the oil seal is broken, ive seen a few exhaust wheels come off, just causes the fuel ratios to go to shit. aka black smoke have you tried another stock bov at all? hopefiully you used decent metal gaskets for the mani to block and mani to turbs areas Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/238245-what-the-fk-is-wrong/page/4/#findComment-4169476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinful Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Love all the speculation!! It's at morpowa and I am sure they will find the problem for you! I really hope it's not internally But with this sort of issue can be alot of things as mentioned above Good Luck!!

craig R33 Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 yeah we used metal gaskets. just got a call from simon, he is also stumped, last i heard, he was gonna check AFM. i think dan is onto something with the exhaust wheel coming off.....that would explain the bad boosting sound and bad afr...........
