Oil leak from turbo inlet.
I have oil leaking out of my oil inlet, it's coming from the turbonetics fitting that was supplied. I believe its 1/8" npt. I have it going to a -4 line. It only leaks in higher RPMS when oil pressure is higher, it doesnt happen at idle.
The fitting seems pretty tight on the turbo, i'm sure I could turn it further, but i'm worried about twisting it off. I have a bad habbit of doing that then you're kinda screwed.
Should I just keep tightening until tight or what. I tried liquid teflon, it didnt work, which makes me think i just need to keep tightening it but im worried.
