Yeah, but did you figure out if it's definitely your sender that's leaking? Were you able to get everything tight, or get the sender removed and plug that port?
Whoever assembled the housings may have turned down the wastegate
Umm, another problem has unsurfased. I remember having it before my turbo went south, but it is getting louder. I also had it before I installed the turbo to begin with, but it was very quite then. It sounds like its coming from under the drivers side valve cover, and it sounds like a ticking noise. Could it be a bad rocker arm or something? I can here it idleing outside the cab, and can here it when I'm accelerating, even if I accelerate slowly. It goes away when I'm driving and I let off the throttle. Its that that is throwing me a curve ball, I dont know why the sound would go away if I get off it. At lower rpms, say 4th gear doing 30mph and I get on it (around 1000rpm's), it almost sounds like a chugging noise mixed with the ticking noise. Do you suppose maybe its because my crossover pipe isnt on right or something?
I'm just waiting to here a boom and so a pushrod come through the hood.
Try running some cleaner through your fuel system, kind of sound like an injector knock. A dirty injector on a diesel will make it sound about like a gas burner about to throw a rod
