My Turbo blew up I got another turbo used but rebuilt (supposedly) I put it on my truck and cleaned all my piping and intercooler (got 2.5qts out of the system) and when I start the truck it's leaking oil from the down pipe approximately 1 drop every 3 seconds I do not have the downpipe hooked to exhaust so I can see it dripping has this happened to anyone else?

Do I have a bad oil seal in the turbo or do I have bigger motor problems? No blow by from the oil cap or from pcv system I can post videos of everything to YouTube and post link that KS in advance

How far have you driven it? I would check oil level, drive it 20+ miles and work it in those miles and then check oil again, if it's still smoking after that, check oil again and double check your cold side IC pipe and see if there's still any oil dripping.

The truck is going to smoke white for a bit as there is probly a fair amount of oil in the intake runners and the motor is gonna have to get under a load to get the oil hot enough to burn it out when it hits the cylinders or it's gonna smoke.
