Checking And Cleaning The Engine Turbocharger
- 1. Remove the air inlet duct and compressor housing. Check for dirt or dust buildup.
- 2. Remove all foreign matter. Determine and correct the cause of the buildup. Use a soft brush on the compressor wheel - uneven deposits can affect rotor balance and cause bearing failure.
- 3. With the compressor housing removed, push the compressor wheel towards the turbine wheel and turn the rotating assembly by hand. Check for binding and rubbing. Listen carefully for unusual noises. If binding or rubbing is evident, remove the turbocharger for dismantling and inspection.
