Do you mean your oil drain, from the turbo going back into the block?

Just get some rubber power steering hose or similar and make a new one, cost will be negligible. Why you'd drive around knowing it is broken is beyond me

hi guy just want to find out what can happen if it is

eg. high oil pressure, axcceive oil in turbo piping..

What happens is oil will fill up the bearing housing and hydraulically force oil through out both sides of he turbo.

Generally if you see smoke with pondle of oil on the cold side would be an indication of that issue.

This happens generally if incorrect sized gasket is fitted or people siliconed too much glue, bad designed catch can, kinked drain hose, wrong type of drain hose, or over filled engine oil. It is a very annoying problem for turbo builders.

To avoid this problem, use specified drain hose and make sure its on a 45 degrees slop to drain port, test catch can for breathing capacity before installation, use specified drain gaskets, and never use silicon on turbo.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
