For anyone who has blown up a T-25, drop your oil pan.
After reading Brian's posts about his no oil pressure and hearing about the possible turbo bearings in the pan, I decided to drop my pan on my 7 bolt that had devloped severe rod knock.
I found lots of pieces of the turbo bearing laying in the bottom of my pan. Tons of brass? metal shavings deposited from the turbo oil drain tube over to the oil pickup in the pan. It looked pretty nasty, I'll try and snap some pics later tonight.
I also was able to grap the bottom of the #1 connecting rod and move it almost 1/4" in any direction. The connecting rod bearings were pounded paper thin and started to squeeze out along the the side of the connecting rod and caps. The crank is fucked. Oh well nobody wants a 7 bolt so it isn't that big of a deal I guess.
Hope this info helps anyone who has a 2g turbo.
