turbo, a/c tensioner
Posted: Sun May 16, 2010 12:04 pm
Hello,
Ok, my guy here in WInnipeg says the turbo is leaking oil, and this would signify that it is shot or almost shot. Is the turbo an external part that can be removed and replaced? How can I test it to see if it works properly? I have not noticed a dramatic decrease in power, but it may have been going over a long time, and my wife drives the van primarily. Also, the a/c tension wheel is totally seized. It shred the a/c belt to pieces. So, please advise about the turbo unit and the tensioner wheel. I can provide any specs or numbers as needed.
Thank you,
Carl
