Pushing Up Oil

Post by VoodooMaster »

I have been experiencing a problem whereby my car pushes up oil through the breather pipe which goes into the air induction pipe leading to the turbo. This then causes the car to throw out clouds of smoke as the oil burns out. But DAMN you will think the engine packed up at that point.
This only happens when drifting (high revs) which I find strange cause nothing happens when driving normal.

Has anyone experienced this before or does anyone know a soution to my problem cause it restricts the time I'm allowed to drift. And that is the real problem.

Your rings are poked.
All that nice combustion pressure is leaking past the rings and pressurising the crankcase,the large amount of air rushing through the breather carries oil with it.

Time for a engine rebuild.

Calibrator I also suspected that but what's so funny is that it only happens when doing drifting. Normal driving is fine. Would the car not produce lots of exhaust smoke if the rings were stuffed? Cause that is not the case with mine.

Drifting = sustained high rpm.

If the oil rings are buggered the car will smoke out the exhaust when the compression rings get a bit tired you get lots of blowby.
