Special Instructions Packaged With Turbocharger Cartridge Repair Kits May Be Incorrect{1053}

Usage:

All Turbocharged Engines Using The Cartridge Repair Kits Listed

Certain turbocharger cartridge repair kits no longer contain replacement bearings. In some cases, the special instructions packaged with these kits do not reflect this change. Although revised special instructions are now used, the former special instructions may still be in the parts system.

The revised special instructions listed in the chart are direct replacements for the former special instructions. The revised special instructions no longer contain bearing information. The former special instructions contained bearing information even though the turbocharger cartridge repair kits did not.

The former special instructions can still be used as long as the bearing information they contain is disregarded.
