Turbo oil drainage. Why does it have to be gravity drained???
Why does the oil drain line from the turbo have to have a straight graivity fed shot to the oil pan? I know it does but I don't know the logic behind it. I mean if you have the oil pump pumping oil into the top of the turbo, shouldn't the oil just be forced out of the hole no matter where it is positioned? It has no where else to go, or does it? Theoretically shouldn't you be able drain the oil wherever you wanted, including a position above the turbo? This has been picking at my head today so thought I would share it with ya'll.
