D1sc procharger leak a possibility?

[Hotrodvdog]

The oil level seems to be a little less each time I check it. Is it possible the head unit is blowing oil into the intake track? I don't have any outer leaks at all. I've found oil in the intake track before but it didn't have the distinct pig sh*t smell that Procharger oil has. I believe it's just blow by. Any ideas? :shrug:

 

[Hotrodvdog]

Would it squeak if the oil level was too low? I'm trying to figure out if it's the blower or belt tensioner...?.?

Do you have oil in the discharge tube?

 

[Hotrodvdog]

Past the bypass valve yes but it looks and smells like engine oil not gear oil like s/c oil does.

Sounds like you are getting blow by in the manifold which is where you're vacuum line for the Blow off valve is tapped into...that could explain why there is engine oil in and around the blow off valve.


I would just check the discharge tube of the blower and make sure that is dry as well

Was the oil before or after the intercooler? Is it on the inlet of the supercharger?

If its on the inlet the oil is blowby, I had the same problem. An inline filter fixed that.

You shouldnt be looking oil because the supercahrger is sealed. It you are it can mean that you seals on the supercharger could be going.

Took off the blower and inspected it. No leaks of any kind. I also went ahead and changed the blower oil. It was a full 6 oz like it should be. I went ahead and installed a Summit oil catch can. Thanks for everyone's input. Oh and the squeak was a bad Procharger idler. SVTperformance family FTW!:banana:

Was it the pulley right under the blower?

 

[Cookieman00x]

yes

 

[SVTContique]

Mine started squeaking as well. I think my idler is going.

I need to get a new one. Is it possible to buy one from some place other then Procharger?

Procharger.com is the only place I know. You might want to try superchargersonline.com or contact HouseofBoost.com to see if they can get one.
