Yes, I had a smoke issue w/ turbo- finally resolved.
When I had rebuilt, I had bearings installed, which use less oil than the journal bushings.
My turbo oil line going in was a -6 TOO BIG, and -10 out.
Ordered this .060 restrictor fitting WOW TOO SMALL, but drilled out 7/32 about the opening of the inside of -3 line, Its perfect...
took her for a ride today, filled up w/ some go go juice and on my way, but like allways the cops have like GPS on this car,
''rays pulling out of the garage go get him''...
Well he said 65 in a 45, I said imposible Im driving slow I dont have a speedo, (damn digital cluster) he says well the ride before i pulled u over u were only going 38, see! I say, The officer let me off on a warning and bull****ted w/ me for 15 min. telling me how much he liked the car, I popped the hood for him He LOVED it...:biggrin:
I told him I get pulled over in this car evertime I get less than a mile from the house ( which I was) for loud exhaust, he laughed and said no way, that sounds good,
those farting cars he hates, says there annoying...
told me to get back on the road and finish the ride and was sorry he bothered me.
It was kinda cool to see a cop actually be humble...
Moral of the story is, she runs good and no smoke, yay!
Thanks to all the help, from the crappy questions I asked, and all the fast replies, and the non ignorant answers...
THANK U, ray
