Not all the time. Far more consistently than before, but I’ll still get the occasional 8psi knock.
I’ve taken a look again tonight and the oil drain connection at the turbo is leaking and there is also a slight coolant leak at the line underneath the turbo. It’s all getting a bit tiresome. I think I’m putting the turbo in crooked and the band clamp is separating a tiny bit allowing some air to escape the hot side. I mean, g-pop rebuilt it. Im sure the turbo itself is fine.
When installing the turbo I’m not taking the manifold off the head. I’m trying to bolt the turbo up by aligning the drain and the aligning the turbo to the manifold joint then bolt it all up. I think it’s just pulling the turbo around too much when it’s all torqued down.
Ill keep persevering with it.
