Finally got it running today, one of the sensors was plugged in though now it wont stay running but will rev up and is smoking out the exhaust a lil and blowing oil from the turbo so i think the turbo seal has gone bad any idea why it wont idle though?

 

Maybe the Mass Flow sensor is bad.
Can you pull any codes?
If you do not know how to pull the codes see link below.

alrighty well its throwing codes 535, 314, 122, 121, 213, 214 which seem to be mostly sensors should i reset it?

 

Clear them and see what comes back.
The main worries are the cam sensor,crank sensor, and MAF.
All 3 will stop it from running or make it run crappy.
Also if the MAF is bad you can unplug it and start it. If it then idles and will not if it is plugged in the MAF is bad.

 

also is it normal to have a bit of oil underneath the spark plug wire cover?

 

Well it depends. If someone spilled oil filling it up then yes. But it could also be a leaking cap seal or plugged vent system.

 

well it looks like there is a new oil filler cap in the back seat. Does those oil symtoms sound like a bad seal in the turbo?

 

Nope on a bad turbo seal. I would clean everything up really good and take it for a drive and then recheck.

 

i will do that also any ideas what else it could be all the plugs look good, i highly doubt its the rings. coud plugged pcv system do that as well?

 

Clogged PCV will make oil come out all over.
But for running unplug the MAF and start it. If it idles good the MAF is bad.

 

as well as cause it to burn oil too?

 

Yes it will.

 

well i got it to idle but it idles low and if i rev it up and let of itll stall

 

Is that with the MAF unplugged?
You might also need to clean the throttle body and idle motor.

 

thats with the maf on after i reset the comp before i reset it with the maf unplugged itd idle for 30 secs then die off

 

Oh ok

 

also how do i find the engine code?

 

also im having a hard time finding an intake manifold gasket, as i need to clean my pcv system but i need to remove the intake

 

Check http://www.fcpgroton.com/
