smoker

[smoker]

smoking on hot idle sounds like how mine was when the old turbo was on it's way out. I would still plug the turbo oil feed on the engine block @ idle to verify where the smokes coming from before condeming the engine as they are very tough - i couldnt find any wear on my rings after 125k and 7 previous owners and there was just a few thou wear on the bores.
