    • 6BTA Turbo Removal

      This topic has 3 replies, has 4 voices, and was last updated byFrancis Valerio 2 years ago

      March 2, 2022 at 12:09 pm I want to remove my starboard turbocharger from the exhaust manifold. Ā The top two turbo to manifold 15mm nuts appear to be easy to access. Ā Any suggestions for the right tool (offset or ā€˜Sā€™ box wrench, etc) to access the lower nuts? Ā Thanks. Ā

      March 4, 2022 at 7:29 am Here is a wrench that you could possibly use.Ā  I dont know if the “box” 12 point end is too thick to get over the head of the nut and “stud” that protrudes but it is worth a try. These wrenches were used for various other applications like starter bolts on old cars where you could not reach with a regular wrench. You can grind down the thickness of an inexpensive wrench also to get in there. I think I may have replaced on…

    • Aftercooler Bonding

      December 25, 2020 at 7:21 pm I just removed my aftercoolers from my 370Bā€™s. After cleaning, testing and reassembling, Iā€™ve repainted both and am ready to reinstall. For the zincs to be effective, do I need electrical continuity between the aftercoolers and the engine block (and the boat bonding system).ā€ The L-brackets that support them are painted and am wondering if they should be wirebrushed on both sides before installation.
