Hey all, This morning on the way to work, I cracked the boost up just alil maybe about 11psi now. (like I said alil) Well of coruse the car was fine. By the time I got to work there was some smoke. Got out to see now it only smokes when your turning the wheel? any thoughts? im kinda cule less at this point.

The smoke is comeing from the manifold. and only when I turn the wheel left and right. There seems to be no leaks that I have seen. just started today. Any imput would help.. thanks

Turning the wheel? PS steering fluid leaking to the manifold? Maybe you got a small hole on the line that squirts when you turn the wheel?

yea check your PS lines. i know my resevoir overflows sometimes when i steer full lock to full lock and sometimes fluid gets on the manifold.

Careful. Find that leak before it becomes a bigger problem.

PS Fluid is flammable + leaking onto manifold = engine fire
