Thread: Turbo 400

Tweet

I have a rebuilt turbo 400 that has never been installed, it has been in storage for 2 to 3 years. What should be done to it before install?

i would start with changing the fluid and the filter. then refill with fluid and check for any leaks.

change front and rear seals (converter to pump/output shaft) check oil level, run it.......drain fluid after some miles, and youre good to go

I expect that he's ready for a tranny fluid change by now This question is from April '11, almost 20 months ago. What's the point

I expect that is a big negatory there Bandit...

Oh crap, didnt notice how old it (post) was......tranny fluid if not used doesnt really change much....I have some in quarts sitting on the shelf been there for 2 or 3 years, not an issue......
