Hope it works out for you.

I can pretty much guarantee you that elbow has failed. Look at the pitting inside it. And the exhaust housing is chunked up with rust scale. Find a shop or a friend that has blasting equipment to confirm, but I'd bet money that once you get that turbine housing descaled you'll have an eighth of...

Sigh. That's not an OEM tag, and you're right. It doesn't have a part number. Maybe the turbo on the other engine does. You could try bolting it back on the manifold. It's a much better holder than chasing it all over a workbench.

If it's actually a serial number it won't help, but put it up and we'll see what it lloks like. It may be a part number and just in the wrong place.

GT1109 is a model number, but unfortunately is not specific enough. There should be a part number on the tag too. Either a DD number or the turbo manufacturer's number. You can jump off that bridge when you get to it. Get the elbow off first and see what you've got.

Didn't mean any offense. Local colloquialism may be a thing. I've been rebuilding turbochargers for a few decades and never heard of such a reference. But hey, keep your powder dry. If @Briankinley2004 can post a part number for his turbo we can see what pieces are available.

Yes, the clamps hold the exhaust housing onto the center housing, and if you can't get the elbow off you can try to pull the turbine housing off to see what's up. They are usually just as challenging as the elbow to separate. Chances are your exhaust elbow is leaking and seawater has corroded...

A shield is usually either a foil, or woven wire material surrounding the conductors of a cable.

Wow. Now I'm Legendary! I love it!

I believe @rsmith has experience with them.

Lenco is almost literally in my back yard. Great product, great people to deal with. Ignore the pallet. They've got a lot of stuff going in and out.

Because the air compressor is on the engine?

That's great! Thank you. I use those tools quite a bit for things like video (now that that is working again) and pictures and fonts and accents,... Annnndddd, colors don't seem to want to work. At least not on my phone. But otherwise it works very well. Thanks again.

While we're discussing the new forum, I love the dark mode, but the posting tools in the create post window are almost invisible in the dark blue. Can we get some more contrast?

Video test: Wooo Hooo! We got video embedding back!

Suddenly I've got all these people following me. Why are they following me? I don't know where I'm going!

I love what you've done with the place. Thank you, and keep up the good work.

Happy St. Patrick's Day:

You have no idea how real this is. :mad:

Just a general observation using post 39086 as a jumping off point.
