Assemble Turbocharger (T12)

1. Make sure that all of the oil passages in the turbocharger cartridge housing are clean and free of dirt and foreign material.

2. Put clean engine oil on all parts of the cartridge assembly.


NOTICE

Rings (9), (11) AND (15) must be installed with the round edge of the outside diameter of the rings toward the bearings.


3. Install snap ring (15) bearing (12) and snap ring (11) in center housing (10). Install snap ring (9) and bearing (8).

NOTE: Put 6V2055 High Vacuum Grease in the groove for seal ring (14) assembly to one half or more of the depth of the groove all the way around.

Tighten the nut an additional 120° of a turn.

9. Remove the nut from the turbine shaft, and put 6V1541 Quick Care Primer on the threads of the turbine shaft and nut.

10. Put 9S3265 Retaining Compound on the threads of the shaft and nut. Install the nut, and tighten it to a torque of 3.5 N·m (30 lb in). Tighten the nut an additional 120° of a turn.

11. Install turbine housing (17) on tool (A). Install the center section in the turbine housing.

NOTE: Put the alignment marks that were made at disassembly in alignment to make sure the housings are in their original position.

12. Put 5P3931 Anti-Seize Compound on the threads of bolts (21). Install plates (20), locks (19) and the bolts. Tighten the bolts to a torque of 20 ± 1 N·m (15 ± 1 lb ft).

2. Loosen clamp (2) and remove compressor housing (1) and the clamp from the cartridge assembly.

3. Loosen clamp (5) and remove cartridge assembly (3) from turbine housing (4).


NOTICE

To prevent a bent shaft, do not put a side force on the turbine shaft when the compressor wheel nut is loosened.


4. Put the end of the turbine shaft in tool (B). Use a universal joint and socket of the correct size to remove the nut that holds compressor wheel (6) on the turbine shaft.

5. Use a press, and push the turbine shaft out of compressor wheel (6) and the cartridge housing. Remove compressor wheel (6) from the cartridge housing.

6. Remove seal ring (8) and shroud (9) from turbine shaft (7).

7. Bend the tabs of the locks from bolts (10), and remove the bolts.

8. Remove backplate assembly (11) from the cartridge housing. Make a note of the position of the oil holes in the backplate assembly and cartridge housing for correct alignment at assembly.

9. Remove spacer (12) from back plate assembly (11).

10. Remove seal rings (13) from spacer (12).

11. Remove thrust collar (14) and seal ring (15) from the cartridge housing.

12. Remove thrust bearing (16) from the cartridge housing.

NOTE: If the bearings are to be used again, put identification marks on them as to their location for correct assembly.

13. Remove bearing (17) and the washer below the bearings from the cartridge housing.

14. Use tool (C), and remove snap rings (18) and (19) from the cartridge housing.

15. Remove bearing (20) and washer (21) from the cartridge housing.

16. If necessary, use tool (C), and compress the end snap ring, and push it out of the bearing bore toward the compressor end of the cartridge housing to remove it.

Assemble Turbocharger (TV81 & TW81)

1. Make sure all of the oil passages in the turbocharger cartridge housing, backplate assembly and bearings are clean and free of dirt and foreign material.

2. Put clean engine oil on all parts of the cartridge at assembly.

5. Use Tool (A), and install snap ring (5) in the cartridge housing.

6. Install washer (7) and bearing (6) in the cartridge housing until washer (7) makes contact with snap ring (5).

7. Install thrust bearing (8) over the dowels in the cartridge housing. Make sure the grooves in bearing (8) are toward the outside as shown.

8. Install seal ring (9) in the groove of the cartridge housing.

9. Put thrust collar (10) in position on the thrust bearing with the counterbore for the spacer up.

10. Install seal rings (11) on spacer (12) so the gaps in the rings are 180° apart.

11. Install spacer (12) in backplate assembly (13).

12. Make sure oil passage (14) in the cartridge housing and oil passage (15) in the backplate assembly are in alignment. Put backplate assembly (13) in position on the cartridge housing. Make sure the spacer fits correctly in the counterbore of the thrust collar.

13. Install the locks and bolts to hold backplate assembly (13) to the cartridge housing. Tighten the bolts to a torque of 10 ± 1 N·m (7 ± 1 lb ft) and bend the tabs of the locks on the bolts.

14. Put the turbine shaft in position in Tool (B). Put 6V2055 High Vacuum Grease in the groove for seal ring (16). Make sure the grease fills the groove approximately one half or more of the groove depth for the complete circumference of the groove to help make a carbon dam under the seal ring. Install seal ring (16) and shroud (17) on the turbine shaft.

15. Install the cartridge housing on the turbine shaft while spacer (12) is held in position. Make sure the seal ring on the turbine is fitted correctly in the cartridge housing.

16. Put compressor wheel (18) in position on the turbine shaft.


NOTICE

Do not put a side force on the turbine shaft when the nut is tightened, or a bent shaft will be the result.


17. Put a small amount of oil on the turbine shaft threads and the compressor wheel face that will be under the nut. Install the nut, and tighten it to a torque of 17 N·m (150 lb in) to push the compressor wheel (18) on the shaft. Loosen the nut and tighten it again to 3.5 N·m (31 lb in). Tighten the nut 120° of a turn more.

18. Remove the nut from the turbine shaft and put 6V1541 Quick Cure Primer on the threads of the turbine shaft and nut.

19. Put 9S3265 Retaining Compound on the threads of the shaft and nut. Install the nut and tighten to a torque of 3.5 N·m (31 lb in). Tighten the nut an additional 120° of a turn more.

20. Put the cartridge housing in a vise as shown. Check the shaft end play with Tool (C). The shaft end play must be 0.08 to 0.25 mm (.003 to .010 in).

21. Install turbine housing (19) on Tool (D) as shown. Put the cartridge and clamp (20) in position in turbine housing (19). Make sure the marks on the housing and cartridge in alignment, and tighten clamp (20) to a torque of 14.0 ± 1.5 N·m (124 ± 13 lb in). Lightly hit all around the clamp with a soft faced hammer. Tighten the clamp nut again to the same torque.

22. Install clamp (22) and compressor housing (21) on the cartridge in the correct position. Move clamp (22) into position, and tighten the nut to a torque of 14.0 ± 1.5 N·m (124 ± 13 lb in). Lightly hit all around the clamp with a soft faced hammer. Tighten the clamp nut again to the same torque.
