Turbo Drain Grommet R&R
Hello Gentlemen, can someone please help me search or just teach me the step by step directions for the removal of the lower(straight) turbo drain tube in order for me to replace the bad leaking grommet that seals the turbo drain tube to the lower oil galley. This is for an '85 300D Turbo123 with a 617-952. Thanks in advance!
Edit: Nevermind! Here, I found a good one! Tips & Pics - 617Turbo oil drain, check valve, oil pump pickup boot/strainer, sealing

Both references are for (in effect) a Federal engine. California is slightly different as regards the position of the turbo and hence the drain but it should be close enough. I like the idea of putting a clamp around the tube as a leverage point. I had a hard time getting the lower tube into the grommet without pushing the grommet into the oil pan but I eventually got it.
