Excess Oil in lower intercooler boost pipe

[conkclo]

ok update, recon turbo & oil feed pipe required & fitted, starter was goosed, new starter fitted, oil & filter changed car running all electrical faults have been cleared by garage, intercooler system cleaned as much as can be, car is running fine, the oil feed pipe was partially choked starving the turbo bearing so the bearing then the seal & turbo shat themselves, but it back on the road, thanks for all the help chaps

ha well all is not as well as it first appeared, new reco turbo has shat itself, second turbo to do that bkd engine, garage replaced turbo, oil, filter & oil feed line, but lad drove it no more than 100 miles, sump nearly empty, smoking like it on 600 fags a minute, oil out of tail pipe and turbo appears to be leaking oil, not a happy bunny here

ok tale endeth ............. i think, warranty turbo after seals failed on the initial replacement one, all the oil dumped from the first turbo dump must have choked the cat and created a back pressure on the seal within initial replacement turbo, the cat was gooed up to high heaven sot internals been removed ( i know it shouldnt be, but it is for a short term) no the car runs with any excess back pressure onthe turbo & the car runs / drives great, here endeth the tale, i bloody hope
