that was lucky the bolt didnt fall into the spinning fan as u were on it, that would have been a disaster.

Nah I didn’t notice anything but LaDuke in the garage, so I cranked up the bluegrass and drove by all leaned over the wheel like I was going 100mph :rofl

cough, cough, i might of dropped a WASHER in it and told him i might of dropped it in there but he had the turbo out 3 more times after.
he checked and wiggled it and shook it and he said he’s almost positive nothing fell in, i wasn’t sure ethier so i told him to take it off to make sure there was nothing in it.
if the blades are chipped then it looks like he wasn’t able to get the washer out and thats his issue…
if the blades are NOT chipped then looks like the turbo you sold him may have been dud.

Saw a guy on 146 driving in front of me throw something out of his window that looked like a napkin as we were accelerating from the light at Albany Beverage/Hannaford. It was indeed a napkin because it managed to cling itself to my driver side mirror.
Now for the nasty part, it was covered in little spots of blood.

Easy peetie… i was just busitin your bawls. :hug He told me the whole story, it sounds like it may have fallin in and just jammed it up… casue he grabbed the impeller and it wont budge. And no f-in way did I or would I sell him, or anyone a dead turbo… not my style at all. not to mention he spun it him self wayyyy before it ever was mounted to the car and there wasnt any shaft play at all. Not to mention, if I was a travis and sold a shit ass turbo, why would I be at his house till 9:30 at night fixin his car?
Bobby is going to take the turbo off for the hwo knows how many times now and see whats up. I bet is it still in there and is hopefully just wedged in, and didt damage the shaft or blades.

I told him to just take the 4088 from Nick and plop it in if the k04-022 isnt going to work.
Yeah I am sure he will figure something out.

Reliable can be built, or bought. But some cars are just doomed from the start!
