Freakin stupid turbos

[PSINXS]

Any tips on how to seperate the exhaust housing from the center section? i know its supposed to rotate but mine seems rusted on. Any ideas tobreak it loose? i tried hammer, wd-40, deep creep, and nothings happening. i need my freakin car to run!!!

are you trying to clock it

[Big J]

torch son, add a little heat

hair dryer? and a flat head screw driver and maybe a 5 lb hammer to help conveince it?

get a damn McDonalds burger, and try again

[Big J]

if it's a factory turbo it might have a pin to keep it from being clocked, which means you'll have to pull the housing off and remove the pin (just fyi if it's an oem turbo)

i would make sure u have all the bolts off first

[PSINXS]

compressor housing is off. all bolts out of the exhaust housing except two that the center section wont let move all the way out. i am gonna torch it up and see if i can get this sucker to turn.

buy a new turbo?

[Krazykouki]

thats what I keep telling him. Get a new turbo. Hitting it with a hammer like some of you are suggesting is just plain stupid, have any of you ever worked on a turbo before?? His housings are cast iron and they will crack.

I suggested heat, I will torch it up tomorrow for you, just remind me.

Oh and if I get it off you owe me lunch, I will do it during lunch.

Bad idea. If it blows it can tear apart his freshly built motor.

1. Get a room at the Marriot hotel on the top floor.
2. Open window.
3. Drop turbo out window.
4. If it doesn't work, repeat step 3.
