Paul, Let me know what you find out?
What I know, is depending on the type of failure, weather or not you can keep running or if you must gut the turbo. A simple seal leak or total seizure, you could keep running on reduced power, and a lot of Black smoke, haha. You will have to keep a eye on the oil viscosity, as it will become diluted with fuel. Shaft or fin breakage, I would gut the turb. and remove and cap oil feed line. It will make it home.TGPJr.
