Passenger side turbo is failing

why bother tho dude. in 4 months you will be pulling your engine !! doesnt seem worth it...
at least take your dumps off and have a look before u jump 2 conclusions ...


ps ..
taking a 20+ year old turbo off a exhaust manifold and head is hard enough on a bench in the shed...

think.. SEIZED CITY

 

ahaha fair enough. Guess I've never tried! Will be trying this sat tho!

 

nah...even extra $100 can be spend for better new turbos. can wait.

 

what are you doing this sat, are you also pulling turbos of your car?!?!

 

Nah, pulling aidens old turbos off his engine

 

Very Weird

Driving my Z for last three days and failed turbo started to work. Boosting upto 14psi in 3rd gear. Power is back and no strange noise from passenger side turbo. Not sure what the hell is going down there. Possibly my replacement engine is arrived and the old engine doesn't want to come out yet. Oh well, time to enjoy the ride until new turbos are ready....

 

A guaranteed way to get any machine to start working properly is to let it see the replacement machine.
( works on women too )

 

sounds like a sticky wastgate in that case.

 

all that money spent on the 3.1 and now your other engines fine again.....hmmmm, that both sucks and is good at the same time!

 

I thoght so. But took the dump off few weeks ago and the actuator was moving fine. Did a hard drive today and still it is as good as last three days. Power is back...
