Turbo Oil Seal Gone?

<< < (2/2)

Range Rover Blues:
Yeap, part of the engine breather system runs from a useless oil trap on the driver's side of the head round the back of the block and into the air inlet ahead of the turbo, so piston blow-by forces oil drops and air into the clean air stream hitting the turbo.  Result, black smeggy oil everywhere.  I ran mine into a catch tank instead.  Worst case is when this oil mixes with the soot from EGR, the resulting black slime is highly carcinogenic and hard to shift.
