    Im Going To Burn It

    hi lads, my intercooler started to fill with oil and became very smokey on idle so i changed my turbo for a low mileage t25 off a 180sx, it now drives perfect and bust good and hard, but when i was having some fun in a quit car park two days ago it spat about 1/4 litre of oil out the dump valve, any ideas, need to get it fixed asap, daily driver,

    ( i want my sierra back)

    were you giving it serious sideways action? i've heard of cars filling their catch cans whilst drifting, imo it is a possibility the oil could of came into breather system into turbo then out the d.v. when it vented. if it's not done it since i'd be inclined not to worry to much. prob wasn't as much as 250ml oil tends to look like vast amounts when it's sprayed in all directions (or spilt on the driveway)

    mine threw oil out at silly speeds so i fitted a catch tank and as long as it never gets full your breathers wont fill engine with oil so yeah a catch tank will work

    id go with breathers too, get a bottle and pipe the breathers into them, can only be worth a try
