I have religously changed the air filter at 12,000 miles and the oil at 5000. 2006 Durmax at 560K miles. Bone stock. No "performance" upgrades. Truck regularly tows 10K pounds. Original turbo, tansmission, water pump and oil pump.

Jiffy lube opened my air filter to check it. 5000 miles later I made the mistake of returning again. The technician came to say who ever installed your air filter installed it upside down. Don't use Jiffy lube if your vehicle means anything to you.

I went to great Canadian and they charged me extra for rotella t6 I get home and the low oil pressure light comes on. No fugging oil!

Ryans a great guy, and hes totally right. I gernaded a turbo, cause was a hole in my intercooler, a boost leak. He got me fixed up and sure enough i did a boost leak check and do anytime i pull a charge pipe. I made one with a pvc pipe end cap and air line fitting. Regulator in line with it. Cost me $5. Saved me thousands.

I just bought and put in last week a high flow 64mm from Ryan’s also. Shit screams like 600 eagles 🦅!

Last June (2021), I went to the Lower Keys from Northern Illinois pulling a 7,500 lb trailer full of construction tools. Just North of Cairo, Illinois, we lost an intercooler. Powerstoke specialist in the area said he "never saw that happen before". After replacing it (on a Sunday morning at 7 am), our diesel ran great and has several thousand miles since we returned in July.

I really appreciated your presentation, very informative. Now it's time to do more research for my 2001 7.3L super Duty. And I subscribed!

Idling the engine before Shutting it off gives the turbo a chance to cool. Oil flow is what lubricants and dissipates heat in the turbo bearings. If you stop oil flow when it's to hot oil will burn and carbon up the bearings. My 07lbz takes about 90 seconds to cool down to 300 degrees. If your pulling a load and it would take a little longer. I have a an 01 cummins it takes about 45 seconds to reach 300 degrees. A gauge is your best friend then you know.

Thanks bud, I have my truck in the diesel shop currently getting new injectors, I’m going to do a turbo leak test when I get it home. (Can’t afford any more issues) lol, my next expenditure will be a pre cleaning lift pump.

There are 2 basic causes of turbo failure are both lack of oil issues. Don't jump on it when you first fire it up, wait until you've got oil pressure established. Don't come nailing the throttle up to a stop and shut the engine off. If the engine is off then you have no oil to the turbo shaft bearing (bushing).

Great video!

Ryan: Great Video! Lots of information. I don't own a Turbo'd vehicle currently, but I do want a Turbo-diesel vehicle on our next purchase. Two Questions: I've considered having a separate oiling system 4 the Turbo with 2 Frantz Oil systems---4 both engine oil & Turbo oil. Kits available 4 common diesels. They filter down to 2 microns, & it removes carbon from the oil (see Frantz's video on this). It's expensive---do U think it's worth it? What about a Vacuum Pump on venting the crankcase to remove the blowby that will occur?

Great info 👍

Thank you for the information provided! I have a 2012 Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins with 30,000 miles on the truck. I have no known problems with the engine. Can you recommend any specific maintenance I should perform or anything I should or should not do to my truck?

I have a 2000 GMC 6.5 with center mounted turbo. Sometimes it works sometimes it don’t. The vacuum pump works fine. I’ve changed the boost sensor and the solenoid and tried my best to check for vacuum leaks. What can cause this intermittent situation?

Great video, I learned some good tips, you didn't mention about cool down for the turbo after heavy loads/high EGT. Shutdown a truck soon as you stop pulling a loaded trailer will bring early failure. I like to idle a few minutes even empty to cool down turbo.

@ToadHoleOntario

Your turbo would have to glowing red to cause the engine oil to burn up. If your turbo is getting that hot that you need to cool it down then think about metal and how is expands and contracts when it cools and remember you manifold will probably crack and leak first.

I like to drive easy the last few miles before I get to where I'm going to let it cool down. Usually let it idle for ~30 seconds before I shut it down as I'm getting stuff ready before I get out of the truck. This has worked well for every turbo vehicle I've had.

@@GrandPrix46 if you bastardized your truck and need to watch the turbo temps just remember real Diesel engines have cylinder liners not parent bores. If your turbo is hot then your piston is hot and polished the top cross hairs in the cylinder till she has a little to much blow by. Real working trucks have air brakes to stop bigger loads. Transport trucks use gear on gear transmissions and no chains in the 4x4( yes you can get a class 8 4x4 Western star truck) it’s just epic stupid truck guys. If you put a turbo on that Godzilla Ford engine it would smoke all Diesel engine power trucks.

Diesel engines were practical with a mechanical diesel pump and a na diesel is the most reliable thing on the earth. As soon as you increase the cylinder pressure your loosing the only thing a diesel has. Long term reliability. All it takes is the cylinder walls to loose the honing marks and now you have used up most of the engines “prime running conditions” build a turbo gasser and you’ll have some crazy obnoxious monster truck build that could possible lift the wheels off the ground

# 9:32 I had a clamp fail on the pressure side of the turbo. I thought it was a tire blowout, so loud. Lost some power, could not pull over for a while. After walking around the rig I elected to pop the hood. Fixed with coat hanger so I could go home.

I knew an old diesel tech that loved K&N air filters. Because he’d install one. Then a year later he’d be putting on a turbo and another year or 2 later he’d be putting a motor in

Wow, they are the real-deal!

bro i gotta ask, or somebody else, he said about the pvc line going cover to cover, i have a stock turbo but should i tee it off and run the tee hose down the side of the motor? only reason I ask is because my egt temp, when i get on it consistently runs around 1100 degrees. sometimes almost to 1300. i hate that. i have a egr delete in it as well(for racing purposes only).

Good stuff.

what about the breather line into the turbo from valve cover ? is it better to get a catch can?

So the pcv reroute, route them together with one hose, I’ve had the reroute from each valve cover rerouted. Did I do it wrong

Awesome video...On your reply for me to get a CAI..Do you have a favorite ??

I boost Leak test every three months whether I drive my 97 12v or not. However one thing that concerns me is the Wastegate flutter. Mine does that everytime it shifts to od.....

I wanted to put a air oil seperator on but was told the turbo needs that small amount of oil. Sounds BS to me but whats your opinion?

Very Good!...

If I purchase a 64mm turbo for a 2011 Ford 6.7, will I need to turn the VGT off or if the turbo compatible? If it needs to be turned off, who do I do that?

Me as a ex truck driver 🤣..I see this all the time..People come off the road and shut down their motors down..😢 This is the worst thing to do..Because. that turbo gets so hot and the oil hot too.When you go to park your truck always let it idle for a few minutes to cool off the turbo chargers😅😮

So is there a preoil procedure for stock or aftermarket 6.7 powerstroke turbos? I installed a larger one and had it lock up after the truck idled for 10 min before test drive... before 3rd gear the turbo had locked up, jist as boost was begining to build

Is there a simple way to power balance a 16 cummins? Or is there any other way to test injectors if I suspect one is not operating efficiently. I ask because it seems mine could be idling a bit smoother compared to others I've heard idling. Mine has 156 k and has no mods other than a new Genos actuator I replaced sometime ago.

What is your opinion on the ecodiesel engine and turbo.

I have n 07, duramax with 365,000 miles the new computer arrived yesterday hopefully it comes back to life, is it time for a new turbo?, it still has stock turbo

I just changed out my lmm hot side intercooler pipe from stock to ppe 3" and had a whistle @ 1800 -2000 Rpms that stopped and running well now ! I think it was intercooler pipe change 🤔

Sounds like truckmaster or Ryan needs to sell a boost leak test kit?!? 🤔🤔🤷🏼‍♂️

How long should a turbo last? Mine works fine but I have 185,000 mi on the original turbo (2007 6.0 Powerstroke stock tune) I take long trips and don't want problems far from home. Is it time to install a new turbo as preventive maintenance?

I have an 07 classic LBZ and I have my two pcv ran to a t, and then the third leg ran into a little breather filter (stainless washable) because otherwise I get a lot of oily vapor blowing on top of the engine. It's this ok to do? Or do I need to do differently??

What did ryan say in the first segment after lifting off your foot of the throttle with that noise? Could someone explain please, I thought it was normal (Noise from the blow off valve) when you take your foot of the pedal and hear that noise....

can you do a turbo removal and install vid?

@truckmaster I’m confused at 06:00 mark. I did a high flow but left factory turbo and did pcv reroute. Is it only supposed to be cut when installing an aftermarket turbo?

6.7 Cummins, is the turbo actuator respirable or should be replaced with a new one?

# 5:04 AND when changing out a blown turbine, look for pieces of turbine all the way back to the air filter. Those pieces will blow the new one lickedy split.

My 2020 3.0 duramax is on its 3rd turbo. Can you give me any explanation why this may have happened? Thanks!
