Re: Boost Leak testing question

No, the balance shafts are in just like stock. As a matter of fact it's the normal stock 2g 2.0l other than having 272 cams. I should point out that i did put all new valves seals on when the head was apart over the winter. Last night I did a pressure test when entire engine was cold and when it was warm. Both times i heard bubbling. When i called PTE this morning, the guy i talked to must have been more sales or something, he wasn't too technical oriented. It would be nice if people actually knew something about the products they were selling.

Also i want to add that the oil after only less that 500 miles on the oil change, seems to be darker than what i think it should be. Exhaust vapors must be getting to the oil?

I ordered the t.b. seals. Napa can get them but it takes 3 days to get them.

Being that i can smell an oil burn all the time and that the oil seems to travel down on the dipstick, i'm gonna have to assume that mine are blown as well. I hope after all this crap is said and done, that it helps my knock problems!

Thanks.
