Well this is my first time posting to this site. I own a 2005 6.0 that I had recently bulletproofed and added a new power max turbo. I use the truck for occasional play and I pull a 25 foot camper with it. The truck has less than 10,000 miles since the work and a new transmission.
I changed the oil in the truck just before I parked it for the winter and I only drained out 8qts of oil (less than 3000 miles on oil change). I haven't noticed any blue smoke and the engine runs great with no codes. I have my CCV routed to atmosphere and it does have quite a bit of white smoke coming out of the hose and smells bad. Same when the fill cap is off but it does not push my dipstick out.
From the exhaust I noticed my soot is fairly oily. I am wondering if a bad turbo seal is causing oil to be pushed out of the exhaust?
I have a gauge made up that I am hoping can test CC pressure with. The gauge is a 0-30 in. HG vacuum and 0-30psi. I plan on plugging my vented crank case hose and getting my reading from the dipstick tube. Anyone know what a good "with in spec" reading in PSI I should get at WOT and warm? I'm just trying to figure out where the oil went. No oil leaks either.
Thanks
