Yesterday I repaired the turbine and changed the sagging left motor mount.
When I changed the air filter a week ago, I noticed one broken stud holding the turbo to the exhaust manifold.
They turned out to be two.
https://fordtransit.club/uploads/monthl ... 16f1a8.jpgI drilled out the broken studs, restored the M8 thread, installed heat-resistant studs and heat-resistant nuts.
https://fordtransit.club/uploads/monthl ... 75f4d0.jpgI noticed that the gasket between the manifold and the head of the block was backwards and covered about 15 ... 20% of the area of the exhaust windows.
Unfolded the gasket.
I installed the pressure head of the compressor, started the engine and gave it gas.
A black wedge of soot remained on the path.
https://fordtransit.club/uploads/monthl ... f94487.jpgWithout two turbine mounting studs, the compressor gave a pressure of no more than 0.5 atmospheres / bar under load. After repair, 0.7 atmospheres / bar at idle.
The gasket was destroyed by exhaust gases.
https://fordtransit.club/uploads/monthl ... 66fbc6.jpgI tried to unscrew the pillow from the paw with a rope loop and a stick - it didn’t work.
I tried to unscrew it with a chain wrench to remove the oil filters - it did not work.
I took off the paw and tried to unscrew it, holding the pillow in a vise, it did not work.
https://fordtransit.club/uploads/monthl ... 792d43.jpgThen I heated the thread twice with a torch and cooled it twice in water - the pillow began to unscrew, and then it began to turn, but the thread stood still.
I cut the thread, welded a nut to its remnants and unscrewed the remnants of the thread from the paw.
Twisted a new pillow and set the paw with the pillow in place. in place.
I put all the air ducts in place, started the motor-vibrations became less.
Boost pressure increased to 0.7 atm at idle.
Today I was driving home from the dacha and did not even feel that there was a high-speed axle with a gear ratio of 1: 3.31, the car accelerated easily and walked easily.
