Thanks. Shouldn't the Turbo last more than a few minutes without oil flow. I would think it would take a couple hundred miles of driving before it destructs.
It's getting oil. I removed the drain line hose at the bottom and placed the end of the line in an oil can. Started the motor. The oil is making it through the Turbo. How much oil flow does it require? Example: A steady oil flow as if you open a drain plug. A fast drip or a slow drip.
