Oil leak
 
Hi guys I have a pretty bad oil leak I believe on top of the Turbo (1988 Rx7 Turbo 2) totally stock. It smokes pretty good once the engine gets hot, I can see blue smoke coming out of the top of the heat shield. I can’t find a write up on how to change the oil lines going to the turbo. Heck you can hardly see any bolts holding the heat shields on! My hats off to you guys that work on these. Any help or a link to a write up would be great. I had no luck with a search in the forum.

Check out page 1-24 on this fsm link. Exploded diagram of how the turbo pieces fit, bolts included.

I’ve highlighted the oil feed and return here.

Hope that helps some..

Go slow and start taking things apart systematically. Nuts and bolts, just set them on the work bench in a clean work space where you'll remember how things go back together..
