1. HARD DRIVING IMMEDIATELY ON STARTUP The engine has not built up enough oil pressure to properly lubricate the turbocharger. 2. SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY AFTER DRIVING The turbo is extremely hot and still spinning with no oil to lubricate the bushings and dissipate the heat. 3. LACK OF OIL, OR DIRTY OIL Without oil, the entire engine will fail. Dirty oil will carry debris (metal slivers, carbon pieces) into the turbo bushings. 4. SHRAPNEL IN THE MANIFOLDS Pieces of valves, rings, pistons and even coked oil will destroy the turbine and / or compressor wheels when contact is made at high RPM. 5. PRESSURIZING THE TURBOCHARGER A dirty air filter, clogged catalytic convertor or damaged exhaust system can cause a failure. An internally damaged engine will pressurize, preventing the oil from draining out of the turbocharger.

failures are directly caused by a damaged engine! Here are the confirmation procedures. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Base ignition timing or injection... is it correct? Air filter condition and associated pipework... is it clean and sound? Spark plug or Injector condition... fuel, oil, carbon residue? Coolant level, oil level... are they at the proper levels and clean? Cylinder leak down test... qualify each cylinder! Exhaust system... Pipes bent or crushed?
7. Qualify the engine. It doesn't make sense to put a replacement or new turbo onto a engine without carrying out an investigation to identify the original cause of failure and subsequently rectify as necessary. The engine will only damage the replacement or new turbo and usually within the first 10 minutes of operation! Expensive! 8. In many instances we have diagnosed engine problems without ever leaving the Plant or actually seeing the turbocharger. If you can provide the answers to our questions, we can normally assist you with the base diagnostics. Unfortunately we do not normally offer a remove and refit service unless absolutely necessary. We only sell replacement Automotive, Industrial and Marine turbos and also the parts to fix them. This diagnostic help is just part of the Service, and we are here to help. 9. 10.

Correct Installation
BASIC RULES FOR CORRECTLY INSTALLING A NEW OR REPLACEMENT TURBOCHARGER: 1. Make any and all repairs that the engine requires. 2. Replace or thoroughly clean the oil supply line. ( oil inlet pipe ) 3. Replace or thoroughly clean the oil drain line / tube. 4. Change lube oil using only TURBO APPROVED ( SG/CD ) motor oil. 5. Pre-oil and prime the new turbo immediately before first startup. 6. Use a new lube oil filter and air filter. 7. Check all hoses and clips for signs of aging and replace as necessary. 8. Carefully install the new turbo to the correct torques (See OEM Spec.). 9. Do not attach the oil drain to the bottom of the turbo yet. 10. Do not attach the catalytic convertor yet (if fitted).
11. Disable the ignition (petrol) or engine stop in the off position (diesel)
YOU ARE NOW READY TO BEGIN PROPER RUN-IN OF THE TURBO:
12. Turn the engine over until a steady stream of oil exits the turbo. It must be a steady stream; dripping or spitting is not good enough! 13. Reconnect the ignition system or stop lever and the oil drain pipe in preparation for startup. 14. Start the engine and allow it to idle at factory specified RPM. Do not rev the engine. 15. Examine all mating surfaces, gaskets, and any connection point to qualify correct sealing and torque values. Adjust as required. 16. Allow the engine to idle for 10 to 20 minutes. The journal and thrust bushings will seat faster and better without the back-pressure created by the catalytic convertor, especially if the convertor is loaded with oil from the failure of the first turbocharger. 17. After idling for 10 to 20 minutes and getting to normal operating temperature, test drive the vehicle. If you hear a scraping, grinding or whistling noise...Shut The Engine Down Immediately! Find out why the noise is there.
NEVER USE RTV / SILICONE, TEFLON OR ANY OTHER THREAD OR GASKET SEALANT ON A TURBOCHARGER ASSEMBLY OR ASSOCIATED PLUMBING!
This material will always end up inside the turbocharger and will prevent proper oil flow to the bushing assemblies causing almost instant failure.
WHEN THE OIL INLET LINE IS FIRST REMOVED FROM A DAMAGED TURBO, CHECK ( AT THE TURBO END ) FOR AN ORIFICE FITTING. THIS FITTING IS THERE TO REDUCE THE VOLUME OF OIL ENTERING THE TURBO. Too much oil is just as bad as not enough oil. The turbo seals will not be able to handle the overload of oil.
IF YOU DROP A NUT, BOLT OR WASHER... FIND IT! Things like this do not disappear. If you can't quickly locate the dropped part, it is in the turbo. Find it, or you may destroy the turbocharger!
