It will run without the turbo but the power loss will make it almost un drivable :shock:  and because its linked to the diesel pump when it hit boost more fuel is delivered so I don’t now if it will even behave like a na engine with out it. it can be fun overtaking standard but you wouldn’t stand a chance with out the turbo :cry:

Hi Andy

Wahat exactly is wrong with it??

if its just using gallonsof oil then chances are the seals have gone so its actually quite straight forward to repiar.

Get in contact with mellets turbos, they do a diy servcie kit for about 52 squid. Theres nowt to be afraid of in replacin gthe bearings and seals.

Thought you had a light bar, you kept that roof rack quiet  :wink:

As for the wiring, just get a snorkel fitted  :wink:

And the mig welder, I know where to come then  :D
