Last week I got a GT40AVNT installed on Uziel. Less than 500 miles later, I come out of the car wash and notice white smoke coming from the rear of the truck in my mirror. I just wrote it off to water turning into steam on the tail pipe. When I got down to check, no more smoke and everything looked good. Friday, I went to the dump and while I was waiting to get on the scale, I notice the smoke again. When I get back to the shop, I leave him running and check the tail pipe. White smoke is coming out of the exhaust and an oil residue inside the pipe. Under the truck, oil drops are visible from almost every clamp along the exhaust pipe. Other than that, no other problems. Engine sounds normal and runs fine. No coolant is leaking.

I did a search on here and found that a possible blown turbo seal might be the cause?

What are your guys' thoughts?

Things I need to check today, see if smoke comes from oil cap, see if there is any fuel in oil.

Thanks in advance.

How large of oil line are you running to ur turbo? I had the same problem and had to much oil then the turbo could handle. If its not the turbo might be a bent vavle stem so you would need to check ur exhast manifolds for oil in them

OT but where'd the unique names come from for your trucks?

Uziel is Hebrew for "strength" and "power" or "God is my strength/power." First saw the same in an old PC game by Microsoft, Mechwarrior 4 Vengeance. I liked it, extrapolated, and transferred it to the truck :D

Tydirium was the name of the shuttle that carried Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and the rest of their team to Endor in 6th Episode of Star Wars, Return of the Jedi. Since the first big trip the truck saw was "shuttling" 3 of my buddies (all of which are huge Star Wars fans) and myself to California, the name was fitting.

And yes, I am a HUGE nerd
