Help please. Vortech blower issues - impeller
This is the upgraded V2 kit. Oil feeds from motor instead of independent resevoir.
Pretty sure this is not normal. This is first time running the blower since Vortech did a complete overhaul on it 7months ago cars been parked for winter and had the motor built. All new internals and seals. Yet this doesn't seem normal. Any thoughts?? Yes i know not clamped down properly. Was trying to figure out oil crap. Watch "Vortech impeller oil leak" on YouTube Vortech impeller oil leak: [ame]http://youtu.be/Q6lFwuD8JTo[/ame]

Try a shorter, more direct drain. And make sure crankcase pressure isn't allowing the oil to drain properly. I had nothing but issues with vortech blowers on my VW. Even after rebuilds

I figured it out. I was a retard. I didn't remove the drain cap. It blended with the fitting. No more leaks. Thanks for the suggestion though.
