That daily turbo glance paid off big last week

Checking the turbo each morning spotted a crack early and saved my engine.

My buddy's turbo seal failure looked fine until it blew smoke like a freight train.

Question whether that tiny crack would actually wreck the engine.

Watch a hairline crack in a block spread just enough to let coolant into the oil. Seen it turn a 5.3 into a paperweight in under a thousand miles. That milkshake it makes locks things up real good, @the_fiona. It starts as a tiny leak but ends with a crank that won't turn and bearings full of metal shavings.
