Hey guys..
Check this..I got home from work today and something told me to pop the hood on the T. Well, I find a nice oil leak from the center section of the 60.
Damn...So, can one rebuild a turbo himself, or is that best left to the pros? Should I have it rebuilt, or upgrade? I am debating doing some engine/tranny work when I pull the turbo. More than likely, a new torque converter. This will give me the chance to freshen up the tranny and fix a number of leaks on the engine. The down side is that I would have to work in the dirt and I would need to buy a daily driver. What do you all think? I will try to get some pictures up this weekend of the damage...I wish I knew what caused the seal to go..I drive it like an old woman and I haven't punched it in a long time. Boost at 12 psi. My only guess is gas-diluted oil from when my MAF was having issues ate away at the seal. If that's the case, I think a need to take a long look at the bearings and any other oil surfaces.
Ideas?
