444/44/396 turbo not spooling up
Now the starboard turbo doesn't spool up . Is there a line or hose or something they may have accidentally broke or disconnected that would prevent the turbo from working ?
Engines start and run perfect but , no starboard turbo .

Unfortunately I can't look anything up for about a week but a serial number would be a good place to start.

Re: 444/44/396 turbo not spooling up
If you can't rotate the blades by hand, there could be a carbon buildup that needs to be broken loose so it spins freely. This happens when the engines sit for awhile without being put under load. Idling at the dock or slow cruising without getting up and going is a turbo's worst enemy. You can break it free by carefully working a small flat head screwdriver around the fan blades to knock the black carbon off until it spins. If you get it free, take the boat out and put it under load to see if you get the boost. If not, report back and we can talk about next steps. Good luck.
