Fanta Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Yeah, without that plug at least on the oil pan, you're gonna spew oil mist onto the turbo. Ask me how I know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asap Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 the rad wasnt full when i took it off, also since i have hydrolic lifters, whats the easiest way to get the air out of them without taking them off, or do i have to take them loose and clean them, they do not look dirty i looked at them before the car was even started when i was setting the ignition timing. i noticed in the link indiana gave the tool they say to use is like 40-50 bucks and u rick messing up some ball in the lifter if you push it in too far... anything around the house that could work? safty pin, needle? lmk!i also have a small oil leak i have to figure out where it is coming from i think oil pan , but i will dealwith that after i get the gasket and throttle body on.

Oil leak could also possibly be from that fitting being uncapped When you remove that hydraulic lifter assembly, be careful and PAY ATTENTION! A tip is to cut the tips off of latex gloves and fit them over the lifter tappets, as they will fall/slide out.

Tim_C. Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I would say to replace the lifters with new, or try the cleaning that Indiana posted. Get the original Oil seperater system back on there and the problem should go away. Start with the oil seperator system. The noise might go away after you get that working correctly. added crankcase pressure will cause noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
