Oil lines leading to the turbocharger sub-assembly
Be careful when removing and reinstalling the turbocharger sub-assembly. Do not drop, strike, or grasp easily-deformed components.
Note
Do not hold the turbocharger sub-assembly by the waste gate valve actuator rod.
When storing the turbocharger sub-assembly, do not place it with the waste gate valve actuator facing down.
Make sure foreign matter does not enter the intake and exhaust ports or oil passage.
If replacing the turbocharger sub-assembly, check for deposits in the turbo oil inlet pipe sub-assembly. If necessary, replace the turbo oil inlet pipe sub-assembly.
If replacing the turbocharger sub-assembly, add 20 cc (1.2 cu. in.) of new engine oil to the turbocharger oil inlet hole and turn the turbine wheel by hand to lubricate the bearings.
