K, I dont know whats wrong.
Ok, this is the problem...... i think i either have a oil leak or something else is wrong. when i let my car idle it does just fine until i rev it or take off, when i do that lots of white smoke comes out my exaust and from the engine (maybe my hole in my flange?). ok it usually only does this at a long stoplight or something like that so i think that the oil is burning.
Yea im not really sure whats wrong but if u could point me in a direction thad be sweet. i have a 90 talon tsi awd if that helps. |
Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
White smoke would be coolant.. Might be your headgasket.

Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
Ok another thing is that the smoke smells a lot like burning oil and also my oil level constantly gets low, like its dripping/leaking or something, but heres the thing, i have yet to see drips of anything anywhere i park.

Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
You either have a blown turbo, a bad head gasket or valve seals that are leaking severely.

Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
which should i check first?, im pretty sure my turbo works good.

Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
Well you could do your valve seals in car... OR.. You could take off the head, do your head gasket, install new valve seals ( or pay a machine shop), then redo your timing belt with all new pullies and tensioners and obviously a belt. OEM mitsu plz :)

Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
Pull your spark plugs and see if you have oil on them. Usually it will run like crap if even only one spark plug is oil fouled. If your plugs look normal, the turbo is taking a dump.

Re: K, I dont know whats wrong.
Cheapest way is to pull the spark plugs and check for fouling. If none are fouled, then check the turbo seals. Good luck - hope it isn't costly.
