Turbo Fitting Instructions

FITTING PROCEDURE – IMPORTANT

BEFORE FITTING THE TURBOCHARGER

  1. Ensure that any fault that caused the previous turbocharger to fail has been rectified.
  2. To prevent contamination of the replacement turbo, the oil feed pipe MUST be replaced, irrespective of condition.
  3. Renew the oil filter and engine oil. (refer to your manufacturer’s specifications).
  4. Inspect the turbocharger oil drain pipe for kinks or carbon blockage. If in doubt, replace the pipe.
  5. Remove all crankcase breather hoses and filters.  Clean or renew the filters & hoses in line with the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations.

FOLLOW THESE FITTING INSTRUCTIONS TO INSTALL YOUR NEW TURBO

Turbo Fitting
  1. Ensure cleanliness whilst fitting the replacement turbo. Do NOT remove the oil feed blanking plug until ready. Do NOT use exhaust sealing paste.
  2. Immobilise the engine. Using a clean container to catch the oil, crank the engine over until at least ½ pint (300 ml) of oil is pumped out of the turbo oil feed pipe. This ensures any dirt or carbon particles are flushed out, which otherwise may damage the new turbocharger’s bearings.
  3. Connect the oil feed pipe. Do not allow dirt to enter the turbocharger bearing housing.
  4. If possible, before fitting the oil drain pipe, ensure that the blanking plug is removed (where fitted) and crank engine until engine oil flows out of the turbocharger bearing housing.
  5. Re-fit the oil drain pipe.
  6. Check all connections are tight, but do not over-tighten.
  7. Start engine and check for leaks.
  8. Road test and check the boost pressure is within the manufacturer’s specified limits.
