Seals in the turbo. Mine does the exact same thing, I know the seals are bad. Yours may be a different case tho. Your boys turbo may have bad seals too you never know. Its not too uncommon.

 

ok im going to pull the pipen off 2nite.. A local turbo shop said 200bucks on the rebuild... Can somebody give a good link to a stem install?? Once agin its a jdm20.. Thanks for all the help..

 

What color is the smoke? Has your car been tuned?
Are you running aftermarket injectors or map sensor.

 

Hmm, i have an oil change coming up this weekend, ill try the PB blaster method.

 

it works!!! a lot of times the ring grooves gunk up and wont let the ring expand and contract making the ring stick letting oil get by

 

kool, mine smoked a little on the dyno a few weeks back.. not alot, but ill give it a try and see what it does. couldnt hurt.

 

Its deff oil smoke.. Yes its tuned, i am running blue top 450cc injectors.. I am checking the pipen 2nite... Will give updates.... I really need to get to the bottom of this problem.... Thanks guys....

 

did you try the blaster?

 

i have not yet. I am going to try it this weekend will post how it goes.. once agin thanks for all the help....

 

What is a pb blaster? I wanna try this item out

 

Its a penetrating catalyst. Like WD-40. Its good for breaking up carbon, rust, etc. Its not going to do you much good unless your rings are stuck.

 

Wouldn't it take you less time to google "pb blaster" than type and respond on a forum?

 

make sure you don't have excess crankcase pressure, and that your oil return is not restricted or too small.

 

What could the problem be if it smokes on deacceleration n on hard acceleration? Mine does it on both??

 

Does it smoke on light acceleration? at part throttle and while cruising too? Could be many things i.e. turbo, rings, etc...

 

You might want to mention too much pb blaster, or any other liquid, can do more than fix your rings. It will hydrolock your motor...

 

Yes it smoke a little on normal driving. I check my downpipe for oil n there were none

 

Yes it smoke a little on normal driving. I check my downpipe for oil n there were none. I have to add oil once in a couple weeks, more if I drive the car harder

 

ok, my car smokes at both decceleration n at hard acceleration. oil consumption is pretty bad depending on how hard you drive, if you say out of vtec you safe no smokes at all. i also read on a next forum that guys were using acetone and ATF 50/50 mix, so tried that over the pb blaster as it is more accessible to me, threw it in the cylinder and let it sit overnight. that was night before so yesterday evening i unplugged the distributor and cranked the motor to get out most of the solution. Then changed the oil and filter, car took about 5mins to actually start, left it to idle for like 30mins it was smoking ridiculously but not oil though, apparently i didnt get all the solution out, changed the plugs out too, car starts and idles fine n no smoke, took it for a drive and heavy smoking at acceleration but i cant tell if it's oil or d solution still.. .. havent drove it today yet, i'll let u guys kno if the consumption changes or not!

 

or yea, my compression even n car has pulls strong still!

 

ok, stil getting oil smoke at hard acceleration! but not as much.

 

I had the same issue.. When a turbo goes bad, it doesn't smoke all the time.. It usually gradually gets worse and worse.. Mine was smoking at idle when I pulled to a light and then started doing it at deacceleration... Swapped in a def. turbo and fixed it.. Thicker oil in hot summer temps will help alittle but will only mask the issue.. Same thing with an oil restrictor... Good luck...

 

People always speak of a turbo "going bad"... but what I don't get, is how pushing oil past a METAL ring (like a piston ring) is a "bad" turbo... No one has ever been able to explain to me how you can ruin a turbo seal. Its a metal ring, much like a piston ring. Its not an o ring or something like I think most people assume. So, how do you destroy this seal to when one would condem the turbo?

 

ok i pulled my pipen off an no oil.. I also tried the pb blaster.. I didnt have any luck... My friend says that i got a broken ringland..... Im @a dead end road with this.....

 

Broken ring land will cause **** poor compression results. Thats a negative.
