1996 F-250, F-350 and F-Super Duty Workshop Manual
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

Lubrication

The turbocharger is supplied with pressurized oil from the engine's main oil gallery through a passage in the turbocharger pedestal assembly. Oil drains from the turbocharger through another passage in the turbocharger pedestal assembly back to the oil pan (6675). This design eliminates any need for external lubrication lines to the turbocharger.

The turbocharger pressurized lubricating oil is also used to actuate an exhaust back pressure warm-up system. Pressurized oil going to the turbocharger is routed to the exhaust back pressure actuator which is used to control a butterfly valve (exhaust back pressure control valve) on the outlet side of the turbine housing. This function occurs only during the cold weather warm-up cycle.

Split ring seals are installed at each end of the shaft between the bearing and the adjacent turbine or compressor wheel to prevent lubricating oil from entering the turbine and the compressor area.
