Turbo oil drain 700 90

posted by  someone claiming to be David Griszkauskas on  Sat Nov 7 17:21 CST 1998 [RELATED]

Just replaced the turbo in my 740 wagon. Everything seemed go smooth except the turbo oil drain on the bottom of the unit. After I first drove it, I noticed oil all over the bottom of the car, as well as a huge puddle on the ground. For those who don't know, the return pipe just sits in the block against a rubber gasket/washer. Since then I tried using RTV gasket maker from Permatex, past day seems to be fine. Anyone know of a way to assure that the oil return pipe sits tight in the block? I hate band-aid fixes.

Also, I'm intersted to see what the solution is to the soft brake problem. I seem to have the same symtoms.
