Turbo diagnosis

Brandon,

Thanks for the suggestion to check the turbo.

What was the outcome of your turbo problem?
How did you determine that the turbo was the problem?

I will check it today by spinning the compressor turbine when it is cold and aftrer the enigne is warm. I would expect that if the turbo bearings got gunked up, they may be sticky at operating temperature.
If the turbo bearings are not damaged, I would expect that they could be cleaned up.

I'll let you know how it turns out/

Regards,
The Chief
