Gunk in turbo 700 1989

posted by  someone claiming to be Brad on  Sat Dec 16 13:26 CST 2000 [RELATED]

I'am in the process of repairing blown head gasket. Are there any good ways of cleaning grease (water oil mixture) out of turbo? Can I just flush it with a light weight oil or is something more drastic required? I had Castrol Syntec in the car when it overheated. I first thought the car had over heated from a leaky hose. Replaced hoses etc and changed oil to Mobil 1. Thought every thing was OK. Car ran fine but then started showing signs of blow head gasket. White smoke, hard starting and slight miss. Not sure which oil was in car when head gasket blew if its important. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
