Yes it is indeed a turbo, I also noticed that the corrugated exhaust tube has a crack in it. Do you have any idea where I could get one and what would be the significance of it being cracked would have on engine operation.!

I'm sure you can get one here. No effect on running though.

In post #13 you mentioned you ordered a new primer pump, I did not see a follow up after that was installed. The only reason i bring that up is when I replaced them that was a huge improvement in starting ease and also on the power side, but each time on different vehicles I was going from the white cap to the Bosch.

Sorry, had to walk away from this mess for a while.. I did replace the primer pump but it did not correct the shutdown problem. I have replaced some vacuum lines that wer missing, One was missing from the EGR valve and the other two where missing from the 2 connections sitting on top of the thermostat area. I assumed that they all went into that control box sitting on top of the valve cover, without a vacuum schematic, I have no idea. With those replaced I have gotten it to the point of not shutting down but it still is definitely not running at full potential. I need to get a hold of a vacuum pump and clear up all of these vacuum issues before moving forward. |
