billysmart Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 '97 300tdi disco, 168,000 miles lots of black smoke and no power... All the hoses are connected and in good condition, the turbo spools up but there is no increase in power and plumes of smoke.. Turbo gone?

CwazyWabbit Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Do the hoses expand when the turbo spools? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco_al Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 delaminated turbo hose, or a leak somwhere. black smoke is too much fuel, and if your hose has collapes internally, as they tend to do, then you will get over fuelling and no boost. take the hose off the inlet manifold and see if the smoke goes away.
