I drive the truck in my Sig but my son has a 1998 2500 Ext Cab 5.9 24v 375k miles...Stock turbo went out, so he found another that looked good and had no wiggle in the shaft and slapped it on. Drove down the street without getting on it and in just a few blocks the same thing happened. After taking a closer look he said the oil line looks dry and thinks both turbo's failed due to no oil flow.
After Googleing the problem he has learned that the oil pumps on these very rarely go out so he is not quite sure where to start trouble shooting the problem. We are both new to diesels but he wrenches and has turbo'd some import gassers.
Any suggestion appreciated.
