One critical comment. I can't believe that you did all of that cleaning with the oil ports on the turbo center section NOT plugged and with the center section sitting next to the exhaust housing when you were cleaning it. The smallest dust and dirt in the turbo bearings will take them out. Something that spins at 50,000 to 100,000 RPM needs more love than that.

The second thing that I would comment on is that you did not put the Motorcraft Nickel based Ford Fluid XL-2 antisease on the unison ring when you put it back together. The Nickel based antisease is good to 2500 degrees. Do not use the copper or aluminum based antisease unless you like taking the turbo off and on. The Ford Fluid XL-2 is generally cheap at the Ford dealer. I just paid, Jan 2024, $5 a can for some it is usually $10 or so so someone may have made a pricing mistake so I purchased 3 cans which should be, assuming that I can find them, a many life time supply. Use the antisease it makes a difference.

Nathan, i'm having an issue on my 06 6.0 dually where it will go into limp mode after a long sustained full throttle pull. If i shut it down while coasting, then fire it back up, it goes right back to normal and the wrench light is off. But its starting to do that more often. I believe its throwing an overboost deep code. Can this occur if the veins are dirty? Any other suggestions? Any help is much appreciated!

I used to put anti seize on the hot side but I found that it dries up and can cause the veins to stick. Even though the antiseize will prevent galling it turns into a hard paste especially once it collects some soot. I found longer time between cleanings when I don’t use it.

28 foot pounds for the turbo bolts. If you have an '03 best of luck getting the bolt on the back torqued. I just really snug it up good, and live by what my dad taught me as a kid regarding bolts: "tight is tight, too tight is broke". There is a reason most rebuild and o-ring kits for these come with new bolts, because it is common for at least one to fall out.

@@mf8913 if the truck had exhaust manifold gaskets (they didn’t have them from the factory but were done down the road) and you have a broken bolt the pressure escaping can make the gasket vibrate just like a reed on a woodwind instrument. I would also closely inspect the up pipes though because a small crack can cause the same noise. He reason it goes away when you unplug the Vgt is because when the VGT is unplugged the vanes open all the way up and exhaust pressure drops.
@mf89132 жыл бұрын
@@InTheShop Yes you're right. It has old metal gaskets that are toast. I will check the up pipes next. Ohh yes that's makes sense for the vgt. So it's more likely related to the exhaust and not the turbo. Man I really really appreciate the info and time to reply. Thanks so much
