Dodge/chrystler/dsm=Stupid engineers
 

DSM cars have to be the most retarded design in the history of cars. Why the ---- is the ex. manifold under the intake mani. I spent 45 min. today pulling ---- off of a Daytona to realize I don't have the right wrench/socket for the 14b factory bolts. I never did get the intake mani off I got tired of ------- with a 150k mile car for a $60 turbo. Plus I had to keep watch on my tools so all the nig-nogs at the pull-a-part did'nt grab em.
At least I got a resistor box for 5 bucks, so the trip wasn't all bad...it usually is, junkyards in Va. suck

/rant

I'm so glad I drive a HONDA

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

sounds like you're playing with a VW style counter flow engine. thats not DSM ----

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

I think your thinking of turbo dodges, cause the dsm turbo is up front. And that turbo you were going for was either a t3 42/48 or a td04 ;)

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

ha.. ive seen fuckers bash those cast manis with a hammer so they can pull the turbo off in a second... dunno what car it was tho

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

a good mexican could get it off with only a crescent wrench and a hacksaw :8

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

Yeah I found a Daytona and a LeBaron turbo today... I thought even turbo dodges were still called DSM's because the turbos are Mitsubishi's

It was a td04

hmt flat rate turbo removal O0

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

I should try that the junkyard is right next to a mexican trailer park ;D :8




Get the new Skinless album

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

nope not the same at all, only the automatic cars had the mitsu turbos, and for future referance the 14b is a td05 and also you probually could have got that turbo off really fast if you would have just pulled the head, if not your looking at a good 3 to 4 hrs at getting that turbo off.

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

/\Gotcha, Yaeh they were both auto's, I almost took the injectors before I realized. I thought about taking the head off, but didnt feel like it. td04h might have been the turbo code, thanks for the info skinnye I'm glad I didn't have the 3-4 hours to remove it now.

Re: DSM=Stupid engineers
 

Those turbo's are retarded not to mention. Stupid ass flange...stupid intake compressor housing... I wouldn't pay 20 bucks for one of those useless fuckers. Just consider yourself 60 bucks richer not getting off. Those turbo mopars are a dime a dozen at my pick and pull and I used to pull all the turbos I could but wouldn't touch those with my 10 foot pole. :3

Re: Dodge/chrystler/dsm=Stupid engineers
 

on sites like turbododge.com you can sell the manual transimssion car turbos for a decent price, since its an upgrade for the auto cars, I have on in my garage that I dought I'll ever put on the shadow, cause I'm too lazy to swap out turbos

Re: Dodge/chrystler/dsm=Stupid engineers
 

yeah skinnye, you're too lazy, ::).
I think we know what it is. Way to help the guy out, skinnye knows his stuff about dem mopar's!!
