New turbo install - oil starvation?
Is there a way to prevent possible oil starvation after installing a new set of turbos? about to do this job and the only worry I have is starting the car up after install.
any advice appreciated

Probably not, if you don’t have the time to wait on that. Depending on the turbo you bought, my Mosselman came with lube, if yours came with any. You should be fine using whatever the manufacturer sends you.

Theres a couple ways to do this. I replaced by oil filter housing gasket and did this: I removed fuse 165 and started the car and let it die before doing any work. After all the work is done, disconnect the 6 fuel injector connectors and crank the car for 10 secs and take a 20 sec cool down break. Repeat this two more times and then connect the fuel injector connectors and install the fuse again. You can remove sparkplugs and disconnect the injector connectors as written in the above TSB if you want. If your car isnt charged up, you may want to charge the car before cranking. Goodluck on the new turbos. Last edited by hC1001; 05-11-2024 at 05:30 PM.. |

Just plugs, coils injectors? Are the injectors necessary?

Is there no way to just cycle the oil like you can cycle the coolant?
I have a vacuum hand pump, but idk where I’d hook it up to to push the air out.

I think the risk with pulling fuses is there is still some fuel in the line. If you pull the fuse amd run it dry first you might be ok. |

So i tried pulling the fuel pump fuse and letting it die. I do no recommend this method anymore. There still seems to be pressure and after letting the car die 6 times, it would still fire up and quickly die.
I instead i followed BMWs instructions for engine repair. Remove coil and fuel injector connectors and crank that way. Pulling spark plugs should help the car with less resistance but i dont think its necessary in my opinion. We crank the car all the time with the spark plugs in. We just need the starter to move the oil pump to circulate the oil to remove some of the air pockets left from repairs. |
