There's nothing wrong with an oil-cooled turbo - it takes a bit more care and feeding but it's merely a formality - sorta like taking the time to put on your seatbelt.
It's gotten to the point where I don't even think about it and naturally take it easy for the last few miles of my journeys. If I'm pulling a heavy load, I just let the engine idle until I can unload - no big deal. --- "Jay \"Mr. 924\" Schreffler" <[email protected]> wrote: > No, its an oil-cooled K26-6 like those on the 930.
