not again

I have a pile of settling where the LIM meets the motor. I think that the injector lines could be the culprit. The car is blowing blue smoke again also out of the tail pipes. I just fixed this problem like 8 months ago and here we go again. Last time it was the turbo but now i have new turbo so I dont know what it could be this time. My engine is brand new from atkins. Havent even broke it in all the way yet due to me going and taking car of the presidents war. But thats a whole nother topic. I really want to fix my car. Does anybody have any advice.

I have the same problem. I just shipped my turbo for a rebuild as well. It's very black nasty oil too. I thought it was from oil blown into the intake track then settling in the TB elbow.

Welcome home btw.

Upon inspection of my setup i noticed some of the oil injector vaccuum hoses had fallen off. I plan on putting some hose clamps on them after i clean up the mess.
