water probs fixed now new problem blue smoke lol help
right sorted the cooling probs out with the rst now today
when on boost it smokes like hell now leaving a nice blue cloud behind until i let off the throttle, it does it even when cruising at 5psi lol
ive just done a compression check and the readings i got were number 1 is 115 and all the others are 120 so its not rings or is it?
this is my problem could it be either
breather system blocked
turbo
or is it the rings even though compression ok
it doesnt smoke on tickover, nor from cold start
just on boost
the oil cap is lifting slightly aswell so this to me indiactes breather or rings
its on standard breather so would it be wise to upgrae this
im going to modify it in a minute so it acts like a cossie breather, no vacumn ant recirculating
there is large amounts of oil in the crossover pipe
the only thing i can bring it down to is the oil is being draged through the turbo and blowing out exhaust from breather system/
any help or ideas would much be appriciated
thanks rich

if compression is ok then my money would be turbo seals,but if you have
had over heating problems then its possible you have cooked a ring.
How recent did you do the compression test?
