While it is possible to mess up a machine by working on it, that danger is very much reduced by having the manual to refer to. Old machinist solves problem #1, manuals. He also gave you the information about how to check the pcv system, another plus. Now for the fuel pumps they are very easy to remove, and only a little tricky to re-install. They ride on the camshaft and are individual to each cylinder. I test them by removing each pump and its injector and with fuel going in squeeze the plunger in and watch the injector spray. A leaky pump drips out the plunger side. Sometimes you can find an honest diesel shop to test them, however around here all diesel shops seem to be crooks. I did make my own plunger and barrel assembly on my mini-lathe after several unsuccessful tries. If you have access to Chinese imports they are available for as little as 5.00 US. Diesel shops will charge 50.00 and up for the same stuff. The turbo is pretty easy to diagnose as the exhaust side would tend to be covered with carbon. My way of testing it is to remove its oil feed line and connect it to a hose and an old radiator overflow bottle full of oil. I pump up the bottle with a radiator tester and put a hair dryer at the turbo intake. If any oil comes out the turbo needs new seals. You would have to remove the muffler to examine the turbo in any detail and beware of the studs breaking off when you do so. You can fix this problem yourself given enough advice and patience.</p></blockquote><p></p>
