***Hi all, new to this forum so not familiar with search facility - hope Im not asking something which has already been discussed-to-death.***
recently bough a '94 940 2.0 turbo for next to nothing. runs pretty well, seems fast enough but has failed its emisions test on blue smoke. Compression seems ok (Ive not got figures to hand right now)
I took off the discharge hose on the compressor end of the turbocharger and found it had quite a bit of oil in it.
this leads me to suspect the turbo seals are leaking.
Has anybody had any experience of rebuilding these? kits seem to be available - how do I know which model of turbo I have (or are they all the same??)
Does anybody have any other recommendations? I found a buildup of crud in the crankcase breather box - and will investigate tonight whether there is a blockage in the oil return from the turbo..
Thanks in advance!!
