Turbo Quit

Driving down 75 Left KY and drove into Tenn., and my Turbo just up and quit. No noise, no Air leaking, No busted Gaskets, It just quit. Started back up a couple of times, and I have made it as far as the Freightliner of Knotsville TN. Where they said that it needs a new one. Grrrrrrr. So Here I set at the Flying J hoping that they will have it fixed tonight, so I can continue on To Birminham AL.

 

OH boy It is a Detroit, and I did drive down into plus 40 degrees..... They are putting a New Turbo in it. I hope that works. I would hate to see all that money spent and then It don't work!

 

Well I am now in a Motel room, They said that it should be done by 9 AM They did read off a list of problems that they came up with with it, and I do remember him saying something about the sensor, I am NO Mechanic on those things, and it bums me out that I am not.

 

I hope that when I go back in the morning, that they found that it was some small inexpensive item and that it'll be fixed. But I'll keep you posted. The way it sounds though, they were going to put in a new unit.

That would be nice if they ended up finding something small like that.

 

Well they found that the (lea pod) or how ever it is spelled was bad also, it lets air into the Exhaust to cool it?????? So...... Noon now before it is done.
It is Raining HARD down here in Knoxville.
