Message	:A compression test with a blown turbo would tell you nothing as all the oil in the motor would give you false readings (high). A leakdown test will tell you if there are any problems with the rings or valves. I would do this now before going any further. Is there oil in your boost pipes? There is no oil in the boost pipes going to the throttle bodies are dry, and the intercooler pipes only have a slight film to them. As I have stated it only smokes under high vaccuum situations (under load, smoke after reving). But thank you, I will now do a leakdown test before anything else. you're the Dr. Frankenstein of TT.net ;c) (n/m) - robo (sebring1970) 18:18:38 01/08/05 [in reference to Ash]
