Good Friday everyone so I just got the turbo installed on my talon but have a oil leak at the feed line I removed the line and fitting to the turbo checked threads and made sure all was good there tightened as tight as I could get it clean it all off and after another 4 min of idle it it’ll start to drip on the exhaust and tips you all might have

First thing would be to give Jackson a buzz, but I am wondering if it wouldn’t help to remove the fitting the hose connects to, clean up the threads and reassemble with some thread sealant.

The only thing I can think of is the fitting is turning with the oil line when tightening. Make sure you hold the fitting with a wrench when tightening the oil line.

if i remember correctly its a banjo fitting prob have a damaged washer... it has 2 washers if it is a banjo fitting did yours have 2?

Turbo side doesn’t use a banjo fitting just threads directly to the turbo adapter block but I think I got it taken care of I put a thin bead of high temp gasket maker on all the threads seems to be holding now
