Caution: The instructions below must be used or premature failure of the turbocharger could occur and warranty claim would not be accepted.
Notes:
Before fitting the turbocharger, ensure that there is no debris in the air cleaner, the pipes for the compressor inlet, the exhaust manifold and the
turbocharger inlets/outlets.
Turbochargers may have fasteners finger tight to help with fitting.
Never loosen the setscrews that retain the wategate, if fitted.
Ensure that the part number shown on your turbocharger is the correct number for your engine.
1 Inspect oil drain pipe for damage, restrictions and signs of wear. Ensure that the oil drain pipe bore is clean. Replace the oil drain pipe if necessary.
Fit a new oil supply pipe.
2 When fitting the turbocharger ensure new gaskets and ‘O’ rings are used and the faces for the gaskets are clean and flat. Tighten the fasteners to
the correct torque, see the relevant workshop manual.
3 Fill the oil inlet hole with clean engine lubricating oil, and rotate the compressor wheel several times to coat the bearings with oil. Refill the oil inlet
hole and connect the oil supply pipe.
4 Check that the compressor wheel rotates freely. There may be slight friction before the turbocharger is run in; this is a normal condition. Connect
the air filter outlet pipe to the compressor inlet.
5 Ensure that the engine lubricating oil is to the correct level.
6 Before the engine is started, operate the starter motor with the fuel shut off for 10 to 15 seconds or until the instruments show an oil pressure build up.
7 Start the engine and allow it to run at idle speed for 3 to 4 minutes before accelerating, check for oil leaks.
