You might want open up the intercooler hose before the intake manifold, and if you find any oil there, than it is most likely your turbos.
Sounds like what happened to my car. Ton of white smoke and oil coming out the exhaust. It turned out my 1st turbo went out.Slowpoke said:Hi again guys, sorry for all the posts
I have driven my Supra for about 2 weeks now without a PCV valve (Idiot mem I know) and a couple of days ago, when cruising on the freeway it suddenly PUKED out what I think is burnt oil from the exhaust. It's not black, blue/white more likely...
I mean, lots of it to, I hardly didn't see anything in my rear view mirror
I recently did valve steem replacement and it worked out perfect but now this :sad:
Please help, is it the turbo? In that case, which one? How to tell? What else could it be?
Thanx in advance guys!

Of course Pooshda, I mean smoke, not oil.pooshda said:Im confused about this though... do you mean SMOKE or actual OIL... because I cant imagine how some oil shooting out of your exhuast would make it hard to see behind the car, you must mean smoke... that could be turbos... I have the same problem right now, But its White smoke.. although after not running the car for a few weeks and revving it up again.. the smoke was white with a hint of yellow in it... Id like to hear its my turbos, I dont want it to be anything major... headgasket wouldnt be any fun to replace I wouldnt think.
What do you mean by milky? The smoke is white and thick.Ryan P said:Milky looking oil is usually a sign of a blown headgasket. I'd check your compression and do aleak down test. Check your dipstick too. If the oil is milky there as well, the head gasket is more than likely blown. Sorry.....

I have no boost so it has to be thew turbos right?
Thanx!
Leak down test meaning a pressure test on the intake????Ryan P said:Milky looking oil is usually a sign of a blown headgasket. I'd check your compression and do aleak down test. Check your dipstick too. If the oil is milky there as well, the head gasket is more than likely blown. Sorry.....
Read my above reply. I'll guarantee its one of your turbos. My car did the exact same thing when my turbo let go. Also check your engine oil, you may be really low or have no oil at all.Slowpoke said:The engine is fine, it runs like a dream and has no weird sounds to it, however, the boost is gone an it smokes white as hell from the moment I start it up.
It has to be the turbo, now my biggest problem is I dunno if I'm gonna go single or buy a new/used stocker![]()
Thanx!
I checked immediately when it happened to me...IntenseSupra-CO said:
