Fitz,

Does oil pooling in the intercooler hoses indicate it's time for a new turbo? My '84 is doing this and using a quart of M1 every 500 miles ( for interstate driving). I don't think that the engine itself is the problem. Plus, I don't see any oil leaks that would account for this. The car runs great with 165K on the clock. The crankcase vent box has been updated to the larger one, BTW.

Thanks in advance.
Dave
