I know there are posts about some of these codes individually, but I am wondering if anyone knows if there are any correlations or connections with these three codes all being present at once, or...

Finally finished putting all the parts back in my car and started it. Runs Beautifully and no more white smoke pouring out of the exhaust. Thank You everyone. <3
-only issue now is seized rear...

Oh we have the snow here. I live in Brockport NY which is pretty close to Rochester, just a more suburban area. The snow and wind has made it very hard to do much to the car. No garage, not many...

When I dropped the sump I had only two pin holes for oil to go through. It really was no wonder my car was experiencing such a problem. I can't believe it even ran for as long as it did like that.

You take Impressive photos Photousa! :)

Glad it worked out! :) Keep us posted on how she runs after You're done. Do You notice a difference in her performance? I know that after I completed the sump drop, I also did the crankcase...

Even IF one were to go to the extent of removing the entire exhaust from the car, then there IS no pipe to work past the turbo. The pipe is not on the car anymore.
-But the entire exhaust does not...

If You can't get the exhaust to make it past the bottom bolt stud, then it would probably be less work to go down along Your exhaust and remove the hangers that are holding it up, all while using a...

Oh ok. I did not have this issue. I had not problem at all because I removed the rubber exhaust hangers further down the exhaust. It allowed for extra room. Did You try this?

What exactly is the issue You are having? You took the nuts off the bolts on the turbo/exhaust? And then could not lower the exhaust? Did You che c.f. k to see if there was that metal support bracket...

When I did mine there was a metal piece with a bolt that held the top of the exhaust to the car. On my 2000, it was between the top of the exhaust where it connects to the turbo, and the part of the...

Ok. I'm going to look into the compression test. For sure. Right after I clean the kitchen up or my children are going to have oil in their breakfast. Thank You for everything. You're Wonderful.

Oh no... there WAS oil coming from that metal hose that bolts to the head of the cobra. Absolutely.

You know what's really interesting about that video? My engine did that before too. Fortunately, it was only for a day or two because when I put the sludge cleaner in the FIRST time... it made all...

Both pictures are from the compressor side housing of the turbo. The part facing inward to the impellor... it looks as if there is some RUB or BURN marks along the place where it spins. It is not oil...

This it the compressor side of the turbo. I can not for the life of me get the exhaust housing off. Did You have trouble with this? This is crazy. :o I think there is just so much carbon build-up...

I would do a compression test but the problem is that I live in a neighborhood with neighbors everywhere. If I even start my engine, the white smoke covers the town in about two minutes flat. It's a...

I have most of those tools, just not even close to as nice. I pulled the turbo out. I found the place for the pcv valve now. Thank You.

Took the silver aluminum pipe off, which is called the cobra? And found that there is a lot of oil in it. Did not find any oil in the big black plastic pipe. I also looked inside the big solid silver...

Thank You. You're Amazing. I'm going to check into everything You said and let You know what I find.

I did not smell a hint of fuel. Not a hint. It was pure oil. And it went from not one single spark plug wet, to every spark plug having a full rush of oil. Instantly. Do You think that if it were...

The car shut off immediately. Pulled the spark plugs, saw they were wet. When I turned the car ignition over, oil shot up and out. Dried the plugs. Put them back in. Then the car ignition turned...

I didn't have any white smoke until I put the motor flush in, or until the oil went into the combustion chamber from the motor flush. After that, the white smoke came pouring out. Never before this...

It's definitely an oil starvation issue. That's why I dropped the oil pan/sump and cleaned the oil pick up screen. But that is and or was only one issue going on. It caused oil tobget into places it...

I think it has something to do with the turbo not getting enough of something, so it's somehow being choked. Maybe not enough oil, air, something is NOT "flowing" as it should. The reason I believe...
