Td06 Smokin'

[Wogboy]

Have a TD06 on an RB25 that was getting a bit smoky. Got a rebuild kit & fitted it but it is blowing copious amounts of oil out of the exhaust. pulled it back off & the inlet pipe & exhaust end was full of clean engine oil. dismantled & checked all seal areas & for incorrect assembly also pulled off drain line & checked but I can't fault anything. Anyone else ever had this problem? Any ideas?

Thanks.

did you rebuild it your self..

[Wogboy]

yes

[WARLORD]

has the shafts been balanced

[Wogboy]

No, if you centre punch the shaft and impeller And line up on assembly there is no need to balance. Am beginning to think I may have a back pressure issue. PCV circuit maybe.
