#88917, "temporary turbo oil drain?"
Aug-21-05 05:33 PM by BumpinTalon



          

I was just wondering if it was possible to make a temporary catch can for the turbo oil drain, just to make sure you aren't spitting oil everywhere, to some place where you can take the oil pan out and weld the bushing for the return into the pan. So you'd have a container catching oil from the turbo oil drain...
I dunno how much oil flows through there at any given time, so I'm not sure if its just a trickle or a big stream.. and if it would be worth the trouble to make a temporary oil drain catch can to drive the car 30 miles or so, or even just a few

NO. If you do, you'll run out of oil while driving and read up on more turboing a 2gnt if you are asking this type of question.

Within 5 minutes, you'd be holding the entire oil pan worth of oil.

No.

Dumb idea.
