BJ74 Turbo Question

[Urbancarrot]

I think my turbo is leaking oil.

The top of my oil filter and my waste gate looks as if it has been sprayed with a light layer of oil.

Is there anyway to confirm that the turbo is leaking oil?

Anyone recommend a turbo rebuilder in Alberta?

clean everything really good with degreaser. Dry it. Take it for a drive and check where the seep is happening. if your lucky its just a fitting or a hose.

Your vacuum pump is also right there, maybe its lines have a small hole.

clean and drive. Best bet before you start yanking things off and rebuilding.
