turbo not spinning
like it says, my turbo doesnt spin even at idle. Thought it was the turbo bought an new one and same scenerio. Car would start and idle fine, but the turbo is not moving. Could it be te valves are loose and cause it not to spin? compression and everything is fine. Need some expertise help. Any thoughts turbo folks......

Are you posting under two names? You're not the one that made the first post on the thread svmn.
Maybe you put the turbo on backwards (intake or exhaust). Or you have 2 busted turbos.

Re: turbo not spinning (ccfries)
1) you might have too big of an exhaust side for that motor making it hard for the turbo to spin at idle but fine under load.
2)broke turbo
3) There can't be any closed valves because if your valves were closed then your car wouldn't run

Re: turbo not spinning (Killa)
what condition is your mani in? do you have any vac. leaks? have you tried revving it to see if it spins, will it spin under load? when driving are you seeing any boost?
