So, sorry if I couldn't find this and it was answered. If it has been then please link it!
Anyways, after completing my new motor installation after my last spun its bearings I notice I have a similar problem my last engine had. Same exact turbo and head keep in mind. After driving for a little, when I stop at a light I have blue smoke come poring past me. Like kind of a lot. This doesn't always seem to happen when I stop and so it has me thinking maybe turbo seals? When I pulled the last motor out I did clean some oil out of the intercooler so maybe it could be doing the same thing. So what I am thinking is maybe when I get it into boost it is sucking oil in and then burning it and I see that at the stop sign? When I drive calmly it doesn't seem like it really does it. Also when I start it fresh it doesn't shoot smoke either. Should I preform tests, or just rip my intercooler pipe off and check for some more oil?
Thanks in advance guys!
