this is the feed for the waiste gate? i need to fix or replace it. i thought i could make a new peice of tubing and flare it but it doesnt look like it swivled..how did it screw on then. im lost. thanks
I'm almost certain that is the coolant return line from a 1.6TD using the water cooled Garrett (T3 maybe). There are 4 tappings into the bearing housing on that turbo. Oil feed / return + Coolant feed / return. A couple of them are banjo type fittings.
The coolant was returned into the frost plug (middle one) at the back of the block, i imagine its a different type of frost plug with provision for the pipe and spring clip.
If its a turbo conversion your doing of some kind, and not using the water cooled Garrett, use a std frost plug and stop the flow of coolant from the block.
Hope this helps. DM
this is a garrett turbo but this line runs from a nipple off the front next to the front impellar and runs to the waiste gate. there are 2 female fittings on the front of the waistegate. this goes to the larger one thats says boost under it.
what is the other fitting for ? the smaller female opening.
how can i fix this peice?
Just make a new one out of tubing and flare it...it has to swivel otherwise how would you screw it on?
i know, and looking at it.. it sure doesnt look like it swivles. thanks
