Myth # 3: a start on the H-throttle

         Case: Komago buy T models is to obtain a more ample power, his home is only ten kilometers away from the company, but the road is very wide, not many cars. His pursuit of "distance home with the company as long as 10 minutes," that is, from out, start, stop time together controlled within 10 minutes, Volvo S40 turbo so every time I start the vehicle on Meng throttle. After four months of "torture" after they discovered during maintenance of vehicles bearing has a certain degree of damage.
         Analysis: increased speed in a short time is a major feature of turbo cars, but this does not mean that car owners can be treated rudely, in fact, just after the start Meng throttle easily damaged turbocharger oil seal.
         High rpm turbocharged engine, start the vehicle, you can not slam the accelerator pedal, should be idle for 3 to 5 minutes, so there is plenty of time to pump the oil is transported to various parts of the turbocharger, while oil after the temperature slowly rising, liquidity is better, so the turbocharger adequately lubricated, then the speed will be "like a duck."
         Myth # 4: their private parts removed
         Case: Small Kwong discovered some time ago the vehicle has traveled 35,000 kilometers, forget to change the oil when replacing the air grid. Think they have done a repairman, there are certain skills, wanted his own experience the fun of DIY. When he later removed the dirty parts bought air cells found little damage, in the absence of air-lattices will start the vehicle, the city intends to go to a nearby auto parts replacement product. Results After a period of time trying to fix the road, Volvo V50 turbo there are some fine stone into the turbine, the turbine after a few days of work he found abnormal, then go to the 4S shop inspection, found that the guide wheel Therefore the vortex turbine damage.
         Analysis: For turbo cars, regular replacement of the air cell to prevent dust and other impurities into the high-speed rotation of the compressor impeller speed instability caused or exacerbated wear bushings and seals. Although small Kwong maintenance experience, but do not understand the characteristics of the turbocharger, it caused such a "tragedy." Turbo from "delicate" aluminum metal, foreign objects can easily be damaged, so it is very dangerous to start the engine without the air filter acts to protect the case.
         Turbocharger rotor bearing high precision work environment requires maintenance and installation is also very strict, so when the turbocharger malfunction or damage to the designated repair station should be repaired,Ford 1.6 turbo but not to the street repair shop . Experienced master introduced turbocharger removal and replacement is very particular. When removing the turbocharger, to block the intake and exhaust ports and oil imports, to prevent dirt or foreign matter from entering; while in dismantling the turbocharger, do not fall, crashing, do not scratch easily deformed parts, such as actuators or linkage. So owners do not own the best parts disassemble, otherwise it will lose the greater.
