Gazza's turbo build

[Puffwagon]

Maybe a quick touch of brake clean, with a rag on a stick, would clean it up enough for some quality super glue to stick, and hold the rest still?

[gaz097]

Yeah sweet. I'll confirm tonight, but pretty sure the wear marks weren't touching there yet.

Doing some reading and the other guide is where the issues come from.


I guess my sump now has a piece of plastic in it, to go with some turbo ball bearings

[bjc]

Wouldn't cause issues at high rpm and backlash? How do they break otherwise apart from going brittle like the oil cap for instance?

[JETURBO]

If the material has fully come off the metal backstrap yes that’s not great but typically just the end snaps off and the rest loosens up 

 

when the guide is sitting in place it’ll hang on for yonks in place but if you went to take it apart that’s when it would disintegrate  

[gaz097]

The plastic guide has fully come of the steel backing

[JETURBO]

Well at least you’re half way disassembled so keep going lol 

 

bang in some new guides and any other part that hasn’t been upgraded now then 

[gaz097]

Genuine guides??
Genuine tensioner?

Already got atomic sprocket and chain.

[JETURBO]

Nar go the Atomic HD set mate, that’s exactly what’s in my above picture 

[gaz097]

Is it alright to pull the balancer with a generic external 3 jaw puller??

Or do I NEED to use an expensive internal one?

[Puffwagon]

Use can use a 3 jaw, if that's all you've got. Just use long thin bolts with washers and nuts. It's a bit of a balancing act and a bit of a pain in the butt but you can do it.

 

Buy the proper one if you can, to save stuffing around, especially if you are going to do it more than once. Nothing wrong with buying tools.
