Couple suggestions after doing this job today:
- Test your emergency stop method before you take off the old part. I took off the air cleaner and slapped a DVD case across the turbo inlet to cut off the air; worked very nicely. I tried a block of wood first, but it didn't make a good enough seal.
- Applying vacuum to the new part with a MityVac and feeling it pull itself onto the pump is a nice way to reassure yourself that it's engaged. I actually left the MityVac in place while I bolted the bracket on, so I wouldn't have to worry about the valve shifting while I worked.
