I’m not sure it’s different for other people I was taking mine out anyway bc I was putting new intercooler intake manifold gaskets and other stuff in the truck so I’m not sure on just the turbo

Thank you I appreciate it :)

Yes it did it was a big difference I do have a straight pipe so that helps as well

I am not 100% sure if it is a similar turbo it might still help but I don’t know if it is the same

5/16.... 8mm same thing.. What does is matter anyways? If you use tools on a regular basis you know what SAE & metric sockets match in sizes or are too close to notice or matter. 🤦🏻‍♂️😄🤔👍🏻🛠️🔧🔩

@tdotw77 That's all good till you have to replace a fastener ( thinking it'll be standard measurement instead of metric ) it's an instruction ... if the information isent complete and correct it confuses those who do not know , like those who are in search of answers .

@tdotw77 Show me a parts counter that has the ability to decipher which "thingamabob" you need from thingamabob on sale this week . Description matters when instruction is offered .

​@@smaksymiv4950it's in Video format if you can't follow a long sounds like a you problem.

Wd worked until pb came along for 40 years. What happened. ??

No fun. I'd say check you're plug at the vgt first just to make sure it's clean and secure (there's probably some other things you could check before taking it back apart). If you can't find it from there. Its possible an oring split or got pinched. Did you install a new vgt? solenoid

i think it was the timing. he didt have to remove it. now Im trying to figure out my timing teeth.

Thanks allot I try to keep her clean just did some engine maintenance/repairs over the summer.

Is that the truck you put the rebuilt turbo in ?
