Whenever my motor reaches boost, I smell exhaust. I can't hear an exhaust leak. I can't smell exhaust while the motor is idling. The more boost, the stronger the smell.
I don't remember this issue before replacing the turbo, and I KNOW I didn't have this issue with the turbo I'm using now in its previous application.
I already know my motor is tired. My rings can't hold my boost, and after having to plug my dipstick tube to prevent oil from spraying out... It just spits it out of the rear main seal (even more) instead.
Aside from that, I don't see or understand how exhaust fumes would be escaping under boost.
Anyone have any suggestions or insight?
Thanks!
