so finishing up my brothers pajero as i had just dropped a good 2nd hand motor in and i thought i'd take it for a drive up the local road..
well about 1.5km up the round thing starts pissing out white smoke like so bad i cant see behind me..... but the engine temp reads fine well by now i thought the worst even tho the engine temp wasnt saying "im overheating" i thought to hell with it i aint walking home if you die you die....
so i pull up back home had a rage as you do then bout 5 mins later when i had claimed the farm i saw under the pajero a 100mm round puddle of oil right under the turbo...
so i thought id pull the turbo to air filter plumbing off and hello the 10mm nut had come off the turbine and damaged the turbine.
now if the turbine isn't properly bolted its gunna let a butt load of oil passed into the exhaust right ? in all honestly i didnt care for the turbo im just glad the engines fine
oh no white smoke
Re: oh no white smoke
