I have never owned a Turbo car before and now it consumse me..
Well i got a 90 Turbo, and dang.... Lots of work needed to be done.
I had a horable intermitened squell when i revireced.
Currection: New Pads and Turned rotors.
Brake inspection: came up with good rotors, hose, master cylinder.
Bad rear brake pads becasue the rear left pads where instaled wrong.
On the back of the pads there is a little tap that goes between the pistions
slot to hold it there for the E-brake. But the pistion was turned and the pad
was tillted in such that forward travel coused it to wear that it did not like revirse.
Cleaned intercooler:
Washed that sucker out with some solivent. Also bleew out the depres with 90psi
shop air. Then took some snap on picks and straitend the fins due to impacts by oversized bugs.
Removed Silincer:
That was fun
Inspected suspinsion and now am replacing a boot. Could use some ajustables.
Coolent leak down was Great.
Presure test and leak down sad

2: 170psi 2%
3: 160psi 8%
4: 145psi 38% Leak threw intake (can feel out TB)
