 24. Lubricate the 2" 1.D. O—ring seal (item #28) and install O—ring seal in the pressure chamber (item #4).
     With O—ring seal lubricated, push pressure chamber over turbo discharge of turbo compressor housing.
 25. instail 90° adapter fitting (item #32) in the female pipe threaded portion of the turbo. When fitting is
       tight, the fitting should be facing the radiator.

 26. Install the pyrometer thermocouple adapter (item #20) in the 4—18 NPT threaded portion.
 27. At this time, the final exhaust brace {item #10) must be checked for proper alignment. Bolt the final
     exhaust brace (item #10) to the turbo mount (item #2) using capscrew and lock washer (item #38, 46).
     Without the piston ring seal (item #19) installed, install the final exhaust (item #3) into the turbo (item
     #1), holding the casting flat against the inside of the turbine housing. Rotate the final exhaust casting
     (item #3) towards the brace (item #10) that has been mounted to the turbo mount (item #2). If the two
     holes do not line up exactly, the brace hole must be elongated so that a proper alignment is obtained.
       After proper alignment is obtained, remove the final exhaust casting {item #3).. Do not remove the
       brace (item #10) from the turbo mount (item #2).
 28. Install the large O—ring seal (item #29) over the intake manifold where the air cleaner gasket was
     located. Be sure the O—ring seal is well lubricated.
 29. With steps 21—27 completed on a work bench, install the assembly on the engine using the one stud
       {item #40) and two capscrews (item #37), lock washer (item #46) and nut {item #44).
 30. Install the base of the oil drain line in the grommet where the anti—depression vaive was removed. Be
     sure that the fuel return line is forward (toward radiator) of the oil drain line.
 31. Secure pressure chamber (item #4) with the O—ring washer (item #48) and capscrew {item #36).
 32. Route the ofl supply line {item #15), so that the throttle cable, cruise control cable, and plastic wire
       assembly are under the oil supply line. This helps keep the cables and wire assembly away from the
       turbine housing of the turbo.
 33. Route the oil supply line to the driver‘s side of the oil drain line. Now route the line between the turbo
     and the pressure chamber. Connect the straight end of the oil supply line to the fitting onto the fitting
     in the turbo and tighten securely.
       CAUTION: if this oil line is not routed correctly, serious damage will result to the turbocharger!
 34. Remove the entire exhaust system.
 35. With the exhaust system removed, cut the exhaust approximately 1%" to the rear of the stock "Y"
       assembly. The rear portion of the stock "Y" assembly must be rounded. This is most easily done by
       using a tubing expander and a hammer. If you don‘t have a tubing expander, you can use a solid piece
       of stock that is approximately 2%4" to 2—3/16" in diameter and a hammer.
 36. Using a file, clean and remove any burrs from the inside and outside of the stock "Y" assembly.
 87. Reinstall the stock "Y" assembly, but do not tighten.
 38 Instail feed pipe assembly (item #7). Slide the exhaust flange of the feed pipe assembly over studs
       {item #41) and use flat washers {item #49) and nuts (item #45), only hand tighten at this time. Stide
       the expanded portion of the feed pipe assembly over the rounded stock "Y" assembly. Make sure that
       the expanded portion of the feed pipe comes all the way onto the stock "Y" assembly.
 39. Tighten exhaust flange to turbo mount securely.
 40. Install exhaust clamp (item #24) over expanded portion of feed pipe assembly and tighten securely.
 41. Tighten stock "Y" assembly to exhaust manifolds securely.
 42. install piston ring seal {item #19}) in final exhaust casting {item #3). Install final exhaust assembly
     using a %" x %" cap screw (item #38) and lock washer (item #46).
 43. Install exhaust down pipe (item #8) by using the 3" band clamp {item #23) as shown in the parts
       assembly.
       NOTE: On four wheel drive models it is necessary to remove the transmission crossmember brace to
       mstall the down pipe.
 44.   Vehictes with automatic transmission should now install the optional dipstick tube {item #12). Use the
       same O—ring from the original dipstick tube. Lubricate the O—ring. Secure the new dipstick tube by
       using the rear valve cover bolt.
 45. Remove the left bank (driver‘s side} valve cover, being eareful not to harm the valve.cover gasket.
 46. Using a %" hole saw, puta hole in the rear most round flat portion of the vaive cover and install the

       CAUTION: NEVER REY THE ENGINE UNTIL OIL PRESSURE IS OBTAINED!




                             INJECTION PUMP FUEL SETTING
                                      PROCEDURE
To realize the benefit from turbocharging your diesel engine, the injection pump maximum fuel delivery
should be increased. This is done by removing the timing cover on the passenger side of the injection
pump. Remove the top capscrew of the timing cover by using a 4" wrench. Loosen the bottom capscrew
and let the timing cover plate rotate to the bottom with the rubber gasket. Now rotate the engine using a
15/16" socket and ratchet on the alternator belt pulley nut until the allen head leaf spring screw is
centered in the opening. Using a 5/32" allen wrench, turn the allen head screw inward {clockwise) 4" of a
turn. The injection pump output will determine maximum exhaust temperature.
CAUTION: Never exceed 1150 degrees exhaust temperature.



                                            MAINTENANCE
1. GIVE YOUR ENGINE A GOOD WARM—UP PERIOD BEFORE YOU WORK YOUR ENGINE HARD.
2. GIVE YOUR ENGINE ACOOQL—DOOWN PERIOD AFTER WORKING THE ENGINE. LET IT COOL TO AT
   LEAST 300 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.
3. CHANGE OIL AT INTERVALS OF NOT MORE THAN 2,500 MILES. CHANGE OIL FILTER WiTH                                   1
   EACK OHL CHANGE,
                                                                                                                  &
4. KEEP AIR FILTER ELEMENTS CLEAN. WHEN THE ELEMENT GETS DIRTY, CHANGE IT! A DIRTY                                g.
      AIR CLEANER ELEMENT WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE EXHAUST TEMPERATURE AND EXCESSIVE
      OIL CONSUMPTION.
5. KEEP FUEL FILTERS CLEAN. DRAIN WATER FROM FUEL REGULARLY. CLEAN DIESEL FUEL
   WILL ASSURE LONG TROUBLE—FREE INJECTION PUMP AND INJECTOR LIFE.
6. NEVER REY YOUR ENGINE UNTIL Oil PRESSURE IS OBTAINED!
7. NEVER SHUT OFF YOUR ENGINE AFTER WORKING IT HARD WITHOUT GIVING YOUR ENGINE A
   COOL—DOWN PERIOD!
