scottieboi94 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 For that split second when you start without priming the turbo has no oil in it so that second starves it off oil. Like a new engine has oil in it but not all around so you prime it. Fair enough mate thanks for the help At least i know now for the future, ive removed the king lead for when i put the new turbo on so i it stops me from starting it and reminds me lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scottieboi94 Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 the turbos off now mate i'm afraid so i'm just gonna see how it goes tomorrow with the old turbo on and if its still smoking then ill go from there. Regardless of whether it smokes or not, i'm going to get a compression test done tomorrow anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok brill mate, it'll just be the turbo and exhaust housing that will be in the parcel unless you need anything else? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liam_D Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Just the full turbo mate, actuator too so we can bolt that back on properly with the correct housing unless you're externally gated obviously. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
