Turbo Generator — Precautions (Nissan Bluebird T12)

1. The turbo generator is driven by exhaust gases and usually operates at very high temperatures. The turbo generator parts withstand high temperatures for a long time.

2. The high rotation speed of the turbogenerator requires good lubrication of the bearings, which depends on a constant flow of engine oil to the shaft bearings: the turbogenerator shaft practically floats on a thick film of oil.

3. Since the operation of the turbo generator depends on the cleanliness of the oil, change the engine oil and oil filter each time the turbo generator is removed.

4. The turbo generator requires absolute cleanliness to operate. A nut, metal object or stone passing through the turbine rotating at 120,000 rpm can cause irreparable damage.

5. Always change engine oil and filter at specified intervals, do not use cheap oil. The most expensive oil is cheaper than a new turbo generator.
