Had my turbo charger fail recently on my 352 stump grinder. It has a Diahatsu Diesel 34 HP engine, Model 58A447 0234 E2. It runs but smokes like crazy, the residue dries up so I guess it is carbon. The thing that stumps me is that I sprayed some carb cleaner on the area around the turbo to clean it up so I could find some identification numbers and the smoke went wild. Don't know how it got into the turbo. It may have a leaky hose or gasket. I don't see any obvious paces it could penetrate, but it apparently did. Anyway, I think I am going to have the turbo rebuilt or maybe get a new one, need the tax break. anyone happen to know what turbo charger is on this engine or where I could get it? I assume I'll need it when I go looking for someone to work on it.
