1981 Buick Regal 3.8L Turbo Bearings
Posted to GM Engine on 5/29/2001 8 Replies

Just aquired this engine. The turbos are A/R 60s. The turbos have not been run since 1982. They are quite dry of oil. I felt(by twisting both ends of the turbine shaft) slight movement. Should there be any movement at all? please only if you know. Thank you
