Hi all! New to this forum, but looking for some help if possible.
I own a 1991 2.4 turbo diesel hilux surf (auto). Serviced it the other day and a friend tweeked the pump afterwards took car for a drive and upon arrival back at home the engine started running at max revs and letting out an extreme amount of smoke. I turned ignition off which did nothing so started squeezing pipes to starve engine of air which thankfully stopped the engine, so thinking this was due to adjustment made to pump, pump was put back to original so tried starting car again and again same thing happened with high revs and smoke and had to cut out engine manually. was told problem could be caused by faulty turbo and was quoted £1300 for new turbo so opted to go for second hand one for cheaper. Fitted it, started car and same thing happens again! Putting it down to bad luck and maybe yet another faulty turbo but now got another but scared to fit it incase same thing happens. So can anyone help shed some light on this problem???
Thanks!
