just bought 94 6.5 turbo diesel need help
 
first is 200,000 to many miles for a 94 6.5 turbo diesel ? and the dual mass went out so i converted it to the solid fly wheel with a new clutch but im still blowing master cylinders i ve blown 6 of them at 50 bucks a pop idk wats wrong its almost all new under there ? and now im leaking oil bad around the turbo ??? need help

No 200k is not to many miles. The one I drive everyday has over 300k on it and still runs fine. Are you blowing the master cylinder or the slave cylinder? Is the oil coming from the turbo or the cdr?

im blowing the master and the oil looks as if coming from a line underneath the turbo i have no clue like i said its almost all new under there ? i also hear a lot ab this pmd switch is that something to worry ab in this heat ?

The line under the turbo is the oil return line. It is just bolted to the bottom of the turbo and probably has a bad gasket. The only reason if the master cylinder is not a cheap one why it would blow is maybe you are bottoming the slave cylinder out before you run out of travel in the master causing more pressure to build in the master. The pmd is the most problematic part on a 6.5. If it is still working I wouldn't get too worried about it but when it is time to replace it I would put a D-tech pmd on the bumper.

I usually just make them but you can probably buy them.
