How Blower Rotor Wear Affects Engine Performance


• Difficult starting


• Excessive smoke


• Overheating


• Loss of power under load


• Increased fuel consumption


• Whining or grinding noises


• Rotor scoring or housing damage


Why Blower Rotors Must Be Replaced as a Set


Blower Rotors and Turbocharging


■ The turbo boosts air density
