Failure of turbocharger bearings and seals can cause large quantities of oil to enter the air inlet and exhaust systems. Loss of engine lubricant can result in serious engine damage.Minor leakage of a turbocharger housing under extended low idle operation should not cause problems as long as a turbocharger bearing failure has not occurred.When a turbocharger bearing failure is accompanied by a significant engine performance loss (exhaust smoke or engine rpm up at no load), do not continue engine operation until the turbocharger is repaired or replaced.
An inspection of the turbocharger can minimize unscheduled downtime. An inspection of the turbocharger can also reduce the chance for potential damage to other engine parts.Note: Turbocharger components require clearances that are precise. Severe service applications can accelerate the wear of the components. Severe service applications may require more frequent inspections of the turbocharger.Refer to Table 1 for the Maintenance Intervals of the Napier turbocharger.
