Hi Dave,
I kinda figured -- but I was thinking the manufacturer of the Turbo
would sell the parts or rebuild yours/sell you a rebuilt Turbo - MB does
not
make the Turbos, I'm 99% certain as MB makes *very* few parts, except for
possibly the block - as they mostly assemble cars.. It's either KKK or
possibly Garrett which was renamed Honeywell Turbo Technologies in the
mid
90s.
Rusty can probably tell you exactly who makes the MB turbos - or he
can
probably get a Turbo rebuild kit for you. I'll see if I can find the
manufacturer in my info -
Good luck -
