93 truck, new (rebuilt) 94 motor from international diesel (new York), started fine...began to see issues...oil...blowing out my pipe, black and thick smoke, with the pungeant tone of oil...all over my *** end...
Pressure guage showing topped out at rev, does fluctuate some...worked fine before.
Is it possible to have a malfunction?

What kind of play do you have in the turbo shaft?...

My turbo has almost 180K on it and I still can barely get any play in the shaft. A 1/2" is HUGE for a turbo.

Looks like you made the same mistake I did. I also bought a motor off of INTERNATIONAL DIESEL. Same deal- Oil pressure pegged at 80psi- the motor is twice as loud as my original and it leaks oil everywhere. They don't use valve pan or oil pan gaskets. They used permatex or silicone- They told me that's the way it comes from factory! The 1 year unlimited warranty covers parts only. They said they would send me gaskets and it would only take 3 hours to put them on. Sorry but maybe we can save someone else from making the same mistake. Did you get your core charge back?
