Is it normal to leak oil into the intercooler?
Also, the turbo oil drain should dump into the engine above the normal oil level – not below it; and if on the major thrust side of the engine, should be baffled to prevent crank oil windage up into the the return line. Yes. The turbo axel is lubricated with a fine thin layer of engine oil.
What happens when there is oil in the intake manifold?
Here comes the intake or inlet manifold. It is a series of tubes that evenly distribute the air into the cylinders. It is bad news when there is oil in intake manifold. Why does this happen and what problem it can lead to? The inlet manifold passes the air to the cylinders through some valves.
Where does the oil go in a turbocharger?
The turbocharger has oil plumbed to it for lubrication. All engines have crankcase ventilation, which has to vent somewhere. Turbo or not, gasoline or diesel, its fed back to the intake for clean combustion rather than released as a pollutant into the atmosphere. Hey, do you have the part number for the repair kit.
How to get oil out of intercooler charge tube?
Then using a variable DC power supply slowly increase the voltage to the solenoid, normally less than 2 volts, but back it off so the injector is still opened so it won’t burn up. Then spray choke and carb cleaner through it until it comes out clean.

What causes an oil leak from the intercooler?
1. Leaking oil seals in turbo… leading to the eventual runaway turbo, yet I also read that you wouldn’t know they were leaking and there is no smoke from the tail pipe… so… ? 2. Normal oil vapor is cooled and being trapped in the bottom of the intercooler.
How does the oil return line work on a turbocharger?
Well, it’s as simple as blocking off the oil return line on the turbocharger. The return line is connected to the crank case. The piston blow by back tracks up the return line. It will then push oil through the seals. And the seals are more designed to keep turbine and boost pressure out of the crank case.
Why is my intercooler hissing near the brake booster?
The hissing you noted near the brake booster could be one of those little vacuum lines that tend to rot out. You can buy that hose in bulk and replace it all. These hoses are very important as they control turbo operation, EGR and anti shutter operation and some other little control switches.
