What should I check for in a used turbo???
I have a donor motor (86 Merkur T3/T4) and the owner told me I should rebuild the turbo, I've visually inspected it with out disassembling it and it spins, has no end play.
In the dry state how freely should it spin?
As stated this is still assembled as a unit with the down pipe still attached.
If a rebuild is recommended who sells the best one for the money.
Thanks Curt
