So, i picked up a turbo last weekend for thw T-bird. Everything seemed fine with it, hardly any shaft play, looked good. I put it on last night. Its magic cock pony..... it blows oil past the seals, smokes like MaD. its bad enough that my car is now stuck in Mazo until i figure out what to do. I swear, if the guy who sold it to me doesnt call me back, im taking a trip to chicago and beating his head in with it. Im now out 200 bucks.

Does anybody know a good turbo rebuilding shop relatively close?

Oh that fucking sucks.

I'm sure there are others, but I'd look into a place that works with turbo diesels, like Polk, Diesel Injection, FABCO, Eggimann. They rebuild turbos everyday.

The turbo is the problem, this was advertised as a good turbo off a low milage car, and even though it has no shaft play, it blows oil past the seals. My other turbo was sized wrong for my car. Still no call back from the seller. Im really getting PISSED now.

Sell that car. It's been nothing but a problem child for you. Next week it will be something else.

Dont think it hasnt crossed my mind. lol

I got ahold of the seller, and he was pretty apologetic. He actually paypaled me 200 bucks plus money to ship the fucked turbo back to him in chicago. ( i drove down to buy this thing initially) so thats all good. I found another turbo too, one off of a low milage RUNNING car (ive seen video) for the same price shipped. I'm paying him today and it will be here next friday. The first seller even said just zend it back to me when you get another turbo.... so hes a pretty stand up guy IMHO.


The car might be sold after its running right regardless...... since it appears that forces greater than me dont want me to drive this thing.....lol
