Thread: Turbo kit is in, Could someone check if my oil lines are good?

I want to double check everything before I start the car up.
Couple questions.

Is there a way to prime the car so every oil/coolant/fuel gets to where it needs too?
Are my oil return and drain good?

I'm afraid of my oil adapter leaking or fuel leaking.
Thank you, take a look at the pictures.
Any tips after startup?

Oil feed coming from a sandwich adapter



Oil return- It takes a spiral because of where I tapped it.




DIY DUMP TUBE
8$ exhaust flexible tube from vatozone
8$ ebay wastegate flange
some welding that blew holes in the tube with some JB weld.
You have to do some bending and slight hammer to get it to bend




16$ home depot catch can with barb fitting



Engine bay.

What is that in your dump tube?

The return line will be fine as long as it will allow oil to drain back into the pan freely via gravity.
You can test your feed line by disconnecting it from the turbo and just give the engine a quick crank once or twice (DONT START IT) to see if oil squirts out.

only way to know if there are leaks is to start it up.

LOL I have time but no money, the whistle can go on & off that is if it doesnt get melted by the rich flames.

pull your fuel pump fuse and pull your feed line off the turbo. take a mcdonalds straw and dip it down into a quart of your oil, put your finger over the top of the straw (holding the oil up in the straw). put the end with oil in it over your oil feed inlet, and let the oil run down in the journal until its full (won 't take much and you can hand spin the impeller to spread the oil across the journal. put your feed line in a jar or bucket, crank car 2-3 times in 3-5 second burts and you should have oil out of your feed.

put it all back together and profit.

only way to check for leaks is to pressurize the system and drive it.

Hope that dump tube doesn't melt of blow off...if it does you're gonna be melting shit left and right lol

OK, I started up the car and everything seems normal.

NO leak at the injectors or the oil sandwich adapter or at any oil line.

The AFR is acting funny. It goes from 10.2-11.3 and slowly creeps up to 14.0 then back down then back up again.

car feels normal just a little louder




255pump is also loud as fuck.

I had a similar problem when I did my injectors. I ended up buying new injector seals/orings and that fixed my problem...there are many things that could cause that though.

That's cuz you're making baby power my motor takes care of the wally hiss issue.

yeah I can hear the walbro pump over my engine/exhaust outside the car

BUMP new problem,

I replaced my injectors Orings and removed a old oring stuck in cylinder 4s injector hole. Even after that my AFR increase from 10-14 and then decreases in a cycle. Any reason why"?
