OK guys a few weeks ago I made a post about my dads 05 using some oil well a lot of oil and smoking a lot. Well I told him to try changing his oil he was running synthetic now hes running rotella im not sure if it still using oil or not but I drove it today and I noticed it smokes in the upper rpm ranges. Yeah it puts out a puff when you shift but if you keep your foot somewhat down near 2500-2800 it makes a very large cloud about the size of the truck. As much as my 97 could make. This truck is stock with a south bend clutch anyone have any ideas?

 

maybe check the turbo and see if its leaking there ?

 

Possibly turbo or map censor related? Are you sure its oil and not unburnt fuel?

 

I dont think the smoke is from the oil. The smoke is coal black should have said that lol

 

I would check the turbo first. Sounds like some kind of boost fooling goin on.

 

What shouldi look for CRs are not my thing. lol

 

Check first to see if he is getting a code by turning the key to the start position 3 times. If the monitor reads none then you have no codes. If you have a code write down the numbers a check back. To check the turbo I would remove the intake and check for any chipped or missing blades then check for spline movement. Also check for any loose electrical connections going into the turbo (Censor and Electronic Wastegate Connections

 

I did look at the tubo a few weeks ago... ill look again. Ill aslo check the codes thanks

 

No codes. Looked at the turbo and i dont see anything out of the ordinary any ideas?

 

Anyone????
