When welding aluminum. Make sure that there is no dirt or oil/grease on the joint. It's got to be clean. When you are done. Are you pressure testing the welds? Checking for leaks with Leak Check or soapy water?
I'm an old TIG welder.  |
Thanks for the great advices. Ill be pressure testing them using one of the turbo leak tester and submerge the ic under water.
Regarding the turbo, i also asked the comp turbo tech that same question. They told me that it does evaporate very slowly (didnt specify through where). They said every 3000-5000 miles just use a grease gun and pump about 3-4 times and thats more than enough to keep it full. The grease fitting looks like its removable.
