The issue of ceasing to oil a hot turbo is before me. I understand most guys let the engine idle until things cool down, but this might not always be possible. Frying my T4 2000 miles from home would

Bobby, It is indeed "best" to let everything cool down after applying full load to a turbocharger before shut down, but that does not mean you will kill it if you don't. The best we can do is a few s

I've heard those stories -- but haven't had any issues with turbos cooking in the 1 1/3 million miles I've put on turbo engines. They've all been diesels, and save for the Duramax in my pickup nowada

Oh, you meant the turbo on your race vehicle. In that case, never mind what I said, okay? Jon Wennerberg Seldom Seen Slim Land Speed Racing Marquette, Michigan (that's 'way up north)

I've see a few oil accumulator setups on turbos. They discharge their oil into the turbo bearings after the engine is shut off and the oil pump pressure drops. Check valves are necessary and you don

It's a whole lot easier to add Pro-Blend to the crankcase and eliminate the coking problem entirely. Give us a call 800-697-5896. Skip Higginbotham Records: AA/GL; AA/FL;B/BGS

The turbo on our streamliner stayed clean for four years of Speedweek and WOS. The first year the EGT was just below 1,600 F. I used a Group 4 oil and made sure we had oil pressure. My exhaust came s

My motor guy was by and asked, "Is that oil line to the turbo big enough?" "Beat's me". It's a #4 Teflon /SS hose, and it does look small. The mule motor has a wet sump and stock oil pump, the dry su

-4 is just fine..Make sure you have a large drain though.. a -8 would not hurt my feelings and no sink traps in the line.. If dry sump hook it to a scavange stage would be my way right or wrong alway
