BlackCobalt707's 06 LS/TC build thread

[BlackCobalt707]

i had to limp this POS home, everytime i stepped on the gas it started sputtering and shit. i swear, im bout tired of this damn car

 

[BlackCobalt707]

well after lookin at the oil, i discovered that the shit is milky...blown head gasket? i checked the dip stick and its fine, i look at the oil cap and it was milky. my friend suggested i unhook the coolant lines and just run a hose to the two sides sayin maybe some how the coolant and oil is getting mixed. ima drain the oil first and see what that is lookin like then if its ok ill fill it back up.

 

[BlackCobalt707]

well. no coolant present in the milk jug. it sat for a few hours and still no red coolant. oh and i got a video of the car hesitating that i will post up in a bit

heres the video, god i sound so retarded in videos lol

 

[huckernage]

wow what up with that shit.

did you touch it or smell it?

 

[BlackCobalt707]

yea, it smelled like gas

 

[huckernage]

is it like oil when you touch it. i means touch gas and oil there is a different texture

 

[BlackCobalt707]

it had a really thin texture but like i said smelt like gas. might have been mixed with gas

 

[huckernage]

je pistons: is those pistons come with ring or you r using stock one. i thing you may have oil passing somewhere. that black thing it not good.

[BlackCobalt707]

vince hasnt seen it, i will e-mail it to him. i got to e-mail him a tune as well

 

[huckernage]

did you built it by your own or a shop did that.

may be you have to remove your head to check this out.

did you try to look your compression in your cylinder

did you run your new turbo with no adjustement in your tune?

 

[BlackCobalt707]

a friend of mine who knows how to build engines built it for me

im hoping i dont gotta remove my head

i will check the compression when i get a test

im goin to replace the oil, cap off the coolant parts of the turbo and see if that helps and see if maybe i have a vacuum leak. last time my car was doin this i had some bad o-rings next to my fuel injector seats

i put on the new turbo, took it to get a downpipe made and that was it. oh and i had vince send me a tune for my 60s cause i was runnin rich

 

[huckernage]

is your gt3076 new one or it a used. maybe it from your turbo

 

[BlackCobalt707]

its brand new, less then 6 miles on it

---------- Post added at 09:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

i was thinkin it was from the turbo which is why i was gonna run a line connecting the coolant fittings and just run oil thru it

 

[BlackCobalt707]

ok guys, go ahead and call me retarded but i think i know whats wrong. i thought maybe the seals in the turbo was bad so i popped off my intercooler piping and there is no oil. and i remember my last turbo that blew has shot oil throughout my piping and i forgot to clean out the piping lol. so im goin to take off my cold side piping and clean the shit out and the reason why the car hesitates in the higher rpm is because im lettin in more oil haha. i hate myself.

and the milky shit is from condensation because its been blizzard weather for about the last 2 weeks. so i gotta just take off the valve cover, clean it out and put it back on and im good. i hope this time it will be right

yea, there is a pool of oil sitting in the pipes, dammit

 

[BlackCobalt707]

got the oil out of the piping and cleaned up my MAF she still sputters prolly cause the MAF but it revs up with no issue

 

[elecblue06]

yea .. your maf is probably fucked up

 

[BlackCobalt707]

i figured. i gotta get a new o2 sensor anyways. so i will pick one up later.


car runs fine, boost great, and no more hesitation. its AMAZING!!!
