Hey all:
I recently installed a clean air kit on my M109, After working for two days
in the serious cold, I started up the truck, and found that the turbo does
not make the whistling noise that I expected to hear.
I assumed that I had a bad turbo, (i.e. bearing too tight or something). I
found that the turbo is free, and disconnecting the air cleaner side it will
suck in a -34 manual from the fender.
I chatted with Richard Greene when I was at Tobyhanna, he tells me that I
probably have what is called a "1D" turbo that was a later production unit,
and that this is normal.
The questions:
Has anyone else heard of this?
How do you identify a 1D turbo from a earlier one? ( I have 3 of them on the
shelf now, and I would probably put a "whistler" into the truck, if I could
tell which one is which.) (Sick, I know, but why have a multifuel, if they
can't hear you coming? <G>)
Thanks
Hank
