DURAMAXED 01-25-2005, 07:55 PM Hello all, a lot has changed since i was last on her last may! I had my turbo and injectors go at 43,000 miles about 3 months ago....I have edge 90hp and 4" bullydog exhaust with K&N filter. Injectors I can understand but my turbo. What could've caused that and why? The dealer said I fried it but still footed the bill, but could the edge of made the egts melt it or should i get a turbo timer, or maybe to much psi? Deadeye 01-25-2005, 08:15 PM Yup! Made of alloy and continuous heat around/above 1600*F will "fix" it! :( Max Power 01-25-2005, 08:18 PM What were you doing when it blew? Towing heavy? Got Juice? 01-25-2005, 08:18 PM if your injectors caused enough oil dilution, the bearing surfaces in the turbo unit could gall or score quite easily, or leave varnish deposits on the shaft. That will kill a turbo quite rapidly. Faster than a 90 HP juice box would. DURAMAXED 01-27-2005, 08:51 PM What were you doing when it blew? Towing heavy? no not towing heavy. I was only towing about 6k. Heard a low whistling noise that sounded like a altenator going took it in the shop and they said hey mark your turbo's fried. And your truck wouldn't turn over this morning your injectors are bad. Yahoo that was a good call. | ||
