polley 916 Report post Posted August 9, 2013 just needed to hit enter in between a sentence. what happened? do you mean the oil return line from the turbo? Turbo was sitting too low, oil wouldn't drain properly. I think thats what he's saying. Everyone told him from the start it wouldn't work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thorburn 120 Report post Posted August 9, 2013 if you'd like to flick off the megasquirt i'd be happy to add it to my collection Hope it all gets running again soon. Is the top mount manifold a log style manifold? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
