Gtm sc oil system trouble
 
My gtm supercharger oiling system is acting up. I changed the filter ( with a magnetic transmission filter) and the traction fluid. Bled the system twice and the fluid was low after driving it. I added a small amount. The next day i started the car and the fluid overflowed.. So i bled the system again and lowered the reservoir tank about an inch... I'm wondering what may be the issue.

Did you do the initial sequence of filling and priming the system that is in the instruction Manuel that comes with the kit?

I know it took me to awhile to get level right when I first installed my sc and primed it.

I can see it backing up if inline filter is backwards but that's it

It sounds like you still have air in the system. You may need to change your bleeding procedure.

The fluid in the reservoir will fluctuate a bit, I need to find my notes but there is a specific time when you measure the fluid level.

I closely looked over the oil lines today and found a line that may have had a little too sharp of a bend. I softened the bend , bled it again yesterday and all seems to be ok!
Changed out my BOV ( for about the 80th time) today to a Tial QRJ .
Doing the Stage 1.5 upgrade tune tmrw!!

Will post results.
