    Blow by coming from beneath turbo.

    I think I've found one that will work. Dorman part 42344 apparently works. I'll have to pick one up. But oil is also leaking from the turbo pedestal, because I think my o ring went missing. Not sure where to get one of those.

    The attachment doesn't work for me.

    Blow by coming from beneath turbo.

    Ah. That explains it. The grommet was from a head gasket set. Probably a cdr grommet.

    Blow by coming from beneath turbo.

    No. This was a multi person project, and I didn't do that past. I'm guessing it's time to pull the turbo. It looks like the pedestal is of to one side of the grommet.

    Blow by coming from beneath turbo.

    I just did head gaskets on my idi, and now there appears to be blow by coming from underneath the turbo. It also looks like the pedestal may be leaking oil. ATS turbo for those wondering. The grommet in the valley pan was replaced. Not sure what's going on here. Any thoughts? Maybe just the...

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    I got the turbo off. I had to figure it out myself since apparently nobody knows how to remove these things. Well, I do now, and it sucks. So am I going to have to remove all of the accessories minus water pump to remove the heads? It seems that way, but I'm not entirely sure. Looks like...

    How do you remove an ATS 093 turbo?

    I have removed the turbo bolts mounting it to the pedestal. I have removed all but two bolts to the down pipe elbow. I have removed two bolts holding the up pipe on. I cannot remove the last 6 bolts to get the up and down pipes off. The two on the back side of the up pipe, I can only get a...

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Yeah, once I get several bolts I either can't get a wrench or socket on it, or can't put any torque on it because of the firewall. I'm at a loss here.

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Yeah, I hadn't gone there, but I apparently do have a good idea of what's going on based on what I observed. So, I must remove those dang bolts most likely. Very annoying. Can't reach them for anything.

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    I can't get the back two bolts off of the up pipe. I can't reach one of them, and the other I can't get enough torque on. So I was hoping I could do it without dealing with the bolts, but it sounds like I wont be able to. And so I need to unbolt the down pipe housing from the turbo?

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Everything but the up and down pipes are separated. I'm not sure how to get them separated though. They seem to just slip together, but they aren't coming apart. I imagine they're full of carbon. Any suggestions?

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Well, I managed to pull the front two nuts from the up pipe, but getting to the back ones is going to be a challenge, and they weren't easy. I soaked them with penetrating oil and they still required some good torque to break them free. I can get my bent 9/16 back there but I don't really have...

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    I have a wrench I bent for the purpose, but my stupid bolts aren't 9/16" which is weird. Well, the up pipe bolts are, but not the mounting bolts for the pedastal oddly enough.

    It's the 093. Note I mentioned the waste gate in my signature :P but yeah, that's it.

    Quick Question

    No, they wont work. These IDIs are InDirect Injection engines. The powerstrokes are direct injection.

    So, once again, besides the bolts to the up pipe, and the single bolt through the snail into the intake mainfold, what does it take to remove the ATS turbo on this truck? Still haven't gotten any further since I have had things come up.

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Ok, so I have to loosen the nuts that hold the ip from turning, the same ones that are used to set timing, and the three external torx bolts that hold it to the gear? Good. Though I don't know I have the right socket for those torx.

    I'm also supposed to remove the IP by leaving the housing in place, and unbolting the IP from the still meshed gear correct?

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Well, I'm going to pull the heads and do the head gaskets, probably will be a great time to do oil cooler o-rings. Also, where are the bolts that hold the turbo in place on these ATS kits? I have the snail loose, and I know I have to unbolt the up? down? pipe. But there's got to be a bracket...

    That wouldn't be surprising. I think I'm going to pull the injectors soon and see what they may look like. I was getting some white smoke on startup, but attributed it to fuel and a cold engine rather than anything else. Haven't smelled any coolant from the exhaust.

    Pushing coolant out the overflow.

    Well, my truck runs great, but it's pushing coolant out of the overflow, and will overheat because of that. Truck has a new water pump, and I replaced the radiator cap just out of curiosity. Didn't change anything. The coolant system pressurizes instantly after starting. There is no cross...

    Truck cranks slow after sitting.

    Ah, I see. Just used what was on hand on the outside of the connections. Just seemed like a good idea.

    Exactly why should di electric not be used?

    Starter Problem / Testing

    Oil can kill your starter. Had it happen on my little brothers ranger. Power steering fluid leak soaked it, and it would do exactly as you are describing. Since you have it out, you can have the start Er tested at an app parts store.

    Truck cranks slow after sitting.

    It is the way I bought it. It had occasionally cranked slow before, but it would only do it once a month or so. I'm wondering if there's any way to keep it tight in the future. I put di electric grease on it to protect it from the elements, but that won't keep it from coming loose.
