Oil brether woes - dr_jekyll - 01-02-2017
With the gt2052s fitted she began to pull the oil from the rocker cover into the inlet so i dumped the breather off to atmostphere.
I have no oil in my inlet pipes nor cooler.
Exhaust does not smoke any colour (nor does it soot unless the mafs unplugged).
Yet she consumes 500ml ever 2/3 weeks.
I believe it all to be coming from the rocker brether as im leaving faint rainbows of oil in my yard at work and the inside of that pipe is thick with oil.
Kinda stuck here. Its been suggested to me that the crank brether is possibly blocked and others say rings. Ive been told to check this pipe by a guy at work at also been told to have a spare as they go brittle

Almost sounds like your rings
I had the same turbo with the breather linked into the air intake and I had no oil being drawn through at all

Not even worth attempting that pipe?

if you're rings are gone enough to burn 1/2 litre of oil every couple of weeks you'd know about it.
you'd get constant smoke from the exhaust as its burned.

well again, if you're rings are knackered enough to pressurise the crank and have oil escaping your breather - stick your thumb over breather and give a rev from idle - will soon know if its pressurising.
mind your dipstick shoulda flown out by now ...

Got it piped down to the driveshaft and iy god covered in crap.

So no it dosnt usually push the dipstick.. only in extreme circumstances

sounds more like a leak from somewhere then, won't harm changing the breather hose
