Oil Pressure Warning After New Turbo Fitted.

[Wesley]

Hello all.

 

I replaced my cylinder head last week due to gasket failure and a warped head and all went fine.

 

Less than 100 miles later by turbo broke. Smoke everywhere.

 

So I did a service and fitted a new turbo yesterday and now every time I Rev over 2000rpm the oil warning light comes on.

 

Has anyone got any ideas.

Thanks

Right this i might be able to help you with. Did you do an oil and filter change? If not i'ld drain your oil, renove the sump and clean it all out. Check and clean your strainer too. I also fitted another oil pump as i had one knocking around. I had the same sort of problem. I dont anymore and light troubles me no more.

Iv sorted it now but thanks for the advice. It turned out to be the pressure switch. My new one turned up and as I took the old one off it had snapped.

 

 

 

I now face a new problem. The engine is smoking nearly as bad as it was with the broken Turbo on

Probaly oil in pipes from turbo failure

Itll burn off

Did you fit a secondhand turbo?

It was oil in the pipes I think because it clearer up. Still not running 100%.

 

Feels like it's misfiring
