LBZ: Oil out Tailpipe's???

[snowman]

So the other day i started the truck to let it warm up and i could smell burning oil??? So i took a walk around and seen oil dripping out my tail pipes, and they had puddles the size of donuts on the ground. NOT COOL!!! I have the PVC re-route and figured that the line coud be frozen??? Any other thoughts???

Blown turbo seal maybe?

Blown turbo seal maybe?

Most likely.

Is it a new exhaust system? When i went from my 4" to 5" i couldn't figure out why there was oil comin out the exhaust. Turns out it was from the new exhaust and the light coat of oil that was put on it.

Blown turbo seal maybe?

ya that was my other thought. i hope not though, don't have the cash right now. Hey but on the bright side, i could always upgrade!!!

 

[snowman]

oh just a quick thought, a buddy has an LLY turbo. Would that fit on my 06 LBZ???

 

[Smokin LB7]

It will fit, but they are different

 

[snowman]

shoot was hoping i could just bolt it in.

 

[Redbowties88]

you can AFAIK

 

[dirttymaxx]

yeah they are diff but i dont see why they wont work. . . the lly charger is a better charger we run a lbz long block and a lly turbo works great,you mite have to change out the sensor,

 

[snowman]

nice! now that you mention that, i do recall my buddy with an 05 telling me that his turbo is suppose to be alittle bit better. Maybe i'll look into it tonight. Thanks

 

[dirttymaxx]

one more thing we had headers from the old lly and they bolted right up on the lbz just fine,so i say go for it! glad i could help

 

[Burn Down]

The turbine ar is bigger on the lly than the lbz/lmm. All of the exhaust & intake system will bolt up the same, not sure on the vane position sensor.

 

[snowman]

sweet, thanks guys!

 

[Kat]

If Pat remembers correctly you might just have to trim the connector a bit to get it to plug in.

 

[snowman]

ok, thanks kat!:thumb: I'll look at my buddies turbo this weekend then.

It could definetly be the PCV frozen off but I'm sure you checked that. If your dipstick was pushed out that is a tell tale sign of a blocked PCV (or cracked piston) as well.

I have an LBZ turbo with 100 000km on it that was running fine when removed you can have it if you pay the shipping. It does have 3 broken off studs and has been sitting outside for six months though...........
I was just hanging onto it in case someone needed a core return turbo.
