Gang,

As I predicted, the engine is fine. The water level and the oil level is ok. The car idle fine. My mechanic did not even do a compression test. He say is not the engine. Is the turbos that lock up and broke the oil seal.

The oil was leaking to the engine and being burned and other oil are being burn by the exhuast system. Lost of boost could cause by the turbo locked up and not spinning.

I guess my quest for the TT continues.

Do continue this project if possible!

I'd hate to see you lose your LS in such a short period of time.

So do you just need to replace the turbos?

Just to update you guys with the news. It was my oil pump fuse that was broken. I over load the power line with the Methanol injection system. Anyway, the fuse broke, the oil pump doesnt work. The oil was not being pump out of the turbos. That is why they smoked. Everything is cool now. The cost was just 20 cents, but it gave me headaches.

Good to hear man!!

Wow, just goes to show you the toll that a project like this can take on the bank account and more importantly on patience. Many nearly complete or barely broken projects have been sold as scrap for want of a "fuse".

Life has many "rules"... one is a woman should NEVER cut her hair short without asking a mans opinion...

and...

You should NEVER sell a project car the same week it breaks down... EVER...
