Turbocharger Lubrication
The turbocharger used on the Lx665 diesel engine
may not receive adequate lubrication on cool/cold
weather (below 5°C, 40°F) start-up, leading to
turbocharger bearing failure.
The following procedure must be used to ensure
adequate lubrication oil is supplied to the
turbocharger bearings before high-speed engine
operation:
1. Set the engine throttle at 1/3 speed.
2. Turn the ignition switch and allow the automatic
glow plug timer to preheat the engine until the
EIC “beep” is heard.
3. Start the engine, but DO NOT OPERATE
ABOVE 1,500 RPM for three minutes to allow for
adequate oil flow at the turbocharger.
After full load operation, allow the engine to run at low
idle for one minute before engine shutdown.
