They said something about the bearing in the turbo needed to be replaced , i think thats what they said i was like 17 at the time , im 22 now so im not sure if that was what he said because it was a couple years back. I really adore this car and i want to get it running back the way it was. My dad is obsessed about diesel cars he says they last forever and now my dad got sick so he is not able to drive it anymore so he passed the car on to me for me to junk it. I almost felt heartbroken , you cant throw a car out that he had for almost 20 years its memories and memories. Thanks for the help ill post pics of the car maybe some people can help me out to see if its worth keeping, theres rust on the bottem of the door and around 1 or 2 wheel well .... Ill put on the boost gauge , i think i have a autometer gauge laying around that i can bring into the cabin, ill post back the psi. What should i see at idle will it read 0 since there is no vacuum and what should i read max?
