ok 940turbo 91...

replaced:-

flame trap (well holder bits as no trap)
breather box
turbo

cleaned turbo hoses
had intercooler out and cleaned it
had ALL the pcv hoses off and cleaned them

STILL geting oil sitting in o nthe upper lip of the turbo, no oil in large hose from metal tube to intercooler or intercooler, only where the sylicon tube hits the turbo, the Sylican tube seem to 'weep' oil - just sort of seems to oooze out of the fabric of the tube...I know these hoses got badly oiled, but i have washed them in gunk, then water...

the only possibilities I can see are:-

1. oil is emeerging???? out of the cylicon

2. oil is comming up the PCV tube???

3 the New trubo is loosing oil too...

grrrrr

anyon any thoughts

oh btw the engine compression tests HIGH wiht 12% difference across the cylinders...

cars done 135k and runs 0w40 mobil 1...

no leaks from filler cap following seal replacement...

cam seal is leaking a bit, leaked when i got it, still does...
