Gents,
Got a question for you. I have had my car running for about 2 months now. Car waqs always running extremely rich. Well, I finally decided to verify fuel pressure and to my surprise, it was@ 65 PSI!
So, I set it to approximately 43 PSI (dynamic) and car seemed to run better.
Here is the issue...
Car runs better but now when I throttle the car, it blows out the blueish smoke and the smoke smells of oil. With that said, here comes my question for you guys:
Do you think that because the fuel pressure was so high that it "washed out" my cylinders?
Could my turbo oil seal be the culprit?
Turbo was supposedly rebuilt.
Plugs are black as coal.. leaning toward the extreme rich condition the car was running...
Any thoughts as to what I can check?
I am planning on changing the plugs and oil (oil smelled like fuel) and letting the car run to see if it improves.
Thanks guys!
Chris
