Turbo clamp soot

Maybe tighten it to 90 in-lbs.. smack the clamp around it, best you can, a few times with a hammer and a soft brass bar or something ... then re-torque it back to 90 ~ but no mroe than 95 in-lbs.

Make sure you use an accurate in-lbs (not ft-lbs) torque wrench if you set it at 95.

What little bit it appears in the photos so far is likely no big deal though.. unless it starts getting really sooty.

Ok, I’ll do that. Thanks. I might rotate it to get at it easier.
