FAQ

Q1: Is this turbocharger a direct bolt-on replacement for my Caterpillar 3116 engine?
Yes, this unit is designed as a direct replacement. However, we recommend checking your engine serial number against the OEM part number 115-1181 to ensure compatibility. In most cases, no modifications are required.

Q2: What maintenance is required for this turbocharger?
Regular maintenance includes checking the oil supply line for restrictions, ensuring clean air filters are installed, and inspecting the intake and exhaust pipes for leaks. It is critical to prime the turbo with clean engine oil before initial start-up to prevent dry bearing failure.

Q3: What should I do if the turbo is not boosting correctly after installation?
First, check for boost leaks in the intake piping and hoses. Second, verify that the wastegate actuator (if applicable) is functioning correctly. Finally, inspect the air filter and ensure the engine is not over-fueled. If the issue persists, consult a professional diesel technician.
