Hey Im new to this forum in perticular but have been a part of the sister BlazerForum for a while now. Anyway my inlet oil seal went out and started dumping oil into my exhaust and intercooler. What I am wondering is if I should take the cooler out and clean it or if I should just leave it and blow whatever is left through and let it burn off. Being that I am not very knowledgeable on ricers or turbos any suggestions are appreciated. The car is an 89 MX6 GT (not AWS) with a stock 2.2L turbo with 64000 origional miles.

 

If it was mine, I would remove the intercooler and flush something like mineral spirits through it. Use about a quart and slosh it around to get as much oil out as possible. The biggest concern is for the catalytic converter getting partially clogged with oil.

 

remove the cat and dont worryabout it
