Replaced fuel line with new elbows fittings and ss and now smoke after hard boost
 

As the subject states ; I just got the line replaced and etc etc... After I push it hard it smokes a bot from the hood...
Then... Gone . Had it hooked up to the diag with microtech and water temps were good . 195 F is the highest I've ever seen which is pretty damned good for puerto Rico. Turbo oil lines were replaced in 07 by kdr etc etc. coolant lines as well.... Ideas?

You replaced a FUEL line and now it SMOKES FROM THE HOOD? How about you check what you just replaced. Its probably leaking and your car is probably gonna catch on fire if you keep doing that.

OP, as was stated in your other thread, you need to type coherently and provide details to get a good response.


It is irritating to read.

Theres no misspelling buddy. And I actually did heck the fuel line and it's NOT LEAKING. I was theorizing with a friend it may be another part Of the fuel rail assembly. Believe me I don't just do shit halfass to have it go up in flames .

^ Much better:icon_tup::lol:. Still not great, but certainly tolerable.

Ok back on track I'm with the car right now. And I can't replicate the problem I looked for fuel leaks , idk apparently another possibility is the turbo oil line cracked a little but I ... Don't really buy it..

My bet is on the oil line, with as hot as it gets during boost a fuel leak would have caught fire instead of smoke.

Yeah.. Cause gas would catch on fire instantly right?

Gas leaks are usually easy to diagnose in the sense that they have a strong smell and can be found with the diagnostic connector.

It's been solved . Doesn't reek of gas anymore . Now I'm burning a little coolant but my coolant looks kinda meh , so I'm going to flush it the whole deal ast rad(obv) and overflow ... I was thinking maybe... A premixed 33 percent I think or 30 coolant 70 water. Again. Locatedin Puerto Rico so freeze points are out of the picture
