Need turbo for 602 - mxfrank - 05-06-2013

First post to this list, but I've been wrenching on Diesel Benz's since I had hair. Hopefully I can contribute a tidbit here and there.

At the moment, I have a problem. I have an '87 190DT, with a bad turbo. The wastgate is frozen in place, can't budge it. Fortunately, the headgasket blew out, or I'd have a real problem! My question is whether there's any way to adapt a Sprinter T25 (triangular flange) to the 190 (rectangular flange)? With these Sprinter turbos available from Asian sources for no money, I hate to spend twice as much on a rebuild.

I have a factory turbo in great shape from my 1991 300d if your interested? Let it go cheap ...

If he doesn't want it, I'll take it.

An adapter plate is easy to make. Some people have even welded plates to their old exhaust manifolds
