so I still have a pretty good oil leak that is dripping off the bottom of the turbo. I checked the nipple at the bottom of the intake hose and it was pretty funky but not completely blocked, I cleaned it out. I replaced the vac lines and elbows etc around the turbo and intake hose. The PCV hoses were in good shape at that end. I don't have great vacuum but it's not positive pressure either...yet. No smoke from the dip stick but the intercooler hose at the top of the turbo gets quite a bit of oil in it.
The turbo oil lines are fine/dry. The oil drips from the bottom of the turbo, down on the engine mount, around/on the driveshaft etc and all the way back to the cross member via the engine mount . all over the place.
If all the hoses etc. in the pcv system look ok do ya think I'm OK with just changing the oil separator?
As far as blowing seals, I would expect there to be considerable positive CC pressure which I don't have. I'm in more of a neutral state pressure wise.
Thanks
Jim
