VIEW    READ ONLY    PRINT   SAVE   A    A  TURBO REPLACEMENT MISTAKE posted by  pbass on  Sat Jul 19 06:25 CST 2003 Author: [PROFILE] [EVERY POST] [THREADS] [BEST POSTS]     [IGNORE ALL POSTS] [RELATED] After reading and reading about turbo replacement on here I would like to know, did I make a mistake by replacing my 1986 740 turbo with the same part or should i have stuck a water cooled unit in it with adapter kit of course? Also a friend told me that using synthetic oil with an older car (137,000) is not such a good idea. more than one person told me that synthetic oil cleans too much out of seals etc. and then everything leaks like crazy?
