Turbo conversion

Ok, one small update.
I changed the alarm sensor on the right engine.
The alarm dissapeard on the left ?
Maybee the alarm buzzer has byen switch in the cockpit.
Soon vacation and I will get more experiences..
 
follow the cables over from the sensors (easier said than done), but I guess they come in one bunch from each engine, so I'd check that there's no idiotic wiring done behind the dash!
Also check that the cables exiting the sensor are not stripped and shorting, one on mine was v.close to sorting so had to insulate it again.
Assuming it's a plain switch I'd unplug it from the rest of the harness wherever the socket/plug is (I think next to the high pressure pump) and sort it with a screw driver and hear where the sound comes from ?

OK, new update. I've got from IVECO Frydenboe, that with max 2700 rpm, "Boost pressure at full load/rated speed 1,7 kg/cm^2 or 24,3 psi" that google says is about 1,67 bar.
I measured about 1,3 bar.
So nothing looks right with even with new sensor. I think I might give up and remove the sensors..
 
Hey you all.
Just converted my aifo 6033 M14 with a turbo. Diesel pump turned up a bit, engine runs perfect.
What is your engine driving and what have you changed in the drive. IE prop etc. Unless you have made a significant change on the output there will be no significant change to power actually developed as the governor will get the engine to the same revs as before and so more or less the same power actually being developed .
When going from normal to turbo aspiration there will be different components in the fuel pump in order to pump larger volumes of fuel in the same pump stroke . What did you TURN UP?
