Well i wanted to see how fast oil was gonna pass through the turbo so i added some on one side but nothing came out on the return side?

is there supposed to be pressure?

 

what were you expecting to see? inside the center section its pretty large, and the oil oriface sprays oil all over the shaft and bearings. The oil return has no pressure, its just like runoff.

 

oh i mean does it need pressure to flow through the center section.

i think mine is clogged, how do i clear it out

 

if you just pour oil in it, its not going to flow out the return if thats what your trying to do

 

what do i do to clear out alot of burnt oil inside the turbo

theres alot of black carbon bits everywhere

 

Carb cleaner, degreaser? I'm not sure if I would soak it though. You wouldn't want to **** off the seals.

carb cleaner or seafoam

 

I have a question, does tilting the turbo oil inlet roughly 40 degrees from straight up prevent the oil lubrication inside the turbo from working?

 

40 degrees is alot..

i woldnt do that.

also dont clean the carbon out, if it spins smoothly dont touch the crud inside.

 

I wouldn't spray degreaser in a center housing cause that just doesn't seem right to me. I would probably heat the ---- out of the center housing and flush hot oil through it for a while (kinda like putting it on a car). But than again who would want to go through this hassle? If its not broke, don't try and fix it cause you probably just going to ---- something up
