Hi if that turbo did that in 60 hours I would be really worried it may have underlying cause/ other than junk rebuild. plus you say you got the tractor used. Maybe somebody else had this problem before and dumped it instead of spending the Cost of fixing. I had a 5488 here for a customer for something else, I can"t remember if it has an oil gauge or not. How many hours on the rest of the tractor just out of interest. I"m kinda suspecting the manifold was changed due to warped sealing surfaces at the head side and probably manifold flanges. It was maybe blowing the gaskets out, maybe studs broke changing the turbo also would wreck it. Had a 466 truck motor here for a guy that was warped, had to have the side of the head machined when i inframed the motor and had the head re built. was also wondering what the air filter elements are like, new or just blown out and put back, never seen turbo damage from plugged filters/ air starvation here, but it may be possible As with all online diagnoses I can only guess this issue/ cause without seeing the tractor.
