I was just thinking today and i remembered that wen i put on my turbo the oil return line was kinked.....If the oil wasnt returning to the sump could this be one reason as to why it was blowing the white smoke????
Could the turbo seals still be good?
Thnx for the Help

if you are talking about the drain pipe them yes you are correct.
oil can be forced through a prefectly good seal and will absolutely chugg white smoke like a steamtrain.
the turbo seal will still be ok

also if it is white smoke and you have a auto trans check that the vac modulator is no leaking trans oil as this will cause white smoke as well. ( get under car and remove pipe off the vac modulator and if oil comes out replace it, if not then it's something else )
