Servicing
SP-13. TURBOCHARGER
1. Check
for air leaks every 250 hours. Air leakage will
lower engine output and may cause black exhaust
smoke and soot.
2. Listen along air line while the engine is running. A
whistling or hissing sound could indicate leakage.
3. Leakage on the pressure side, between turbo and
engine, can be found by applying soapy water to the
air line.
4. Tighten the hose clamps and replace hoses or gaskets
as required.
5. Check to see that the lubrication and cooling lines
are tight and without leaks.
