Hi i have a problem with this charger always its a oil seal or a spring who pops out.
I already change 3 main shafts so whats rong?the oil seals are the good ones viton high pressure.
Can you guys help me?

Check yr oil pressure.  Breather blocked,  drain blocked etc

Its all alright maybe its the bearing from scroll?

PeteG40

if the oil seal pops out - do you bond them in?

In extreme cases the scroll centre can wear so seals pop.  So.it needs sleaving.


However its normally excess oil pressure that causes them to pop
.
Either blocked shaft or oil drain on the block or in the charger pulley side or a blocked breather or kinked breathee hose

When I took one of my chargers apart I found lots of metal stuck in the main shaft oil way, it was the left overs of an old Oil Seal spring, it had broken up and I reckon once all was out (it took me ages to fish it all out!) I had enough to build the pressure up on one side of the charger seals.

this was a charger I bought second hand so I never ran it like this but I dare say it couldn't have been efficient running like this.

So if you have the charger apart check the oil ways inside the main shaft!
