my turbo has suddenly stopped spinning, it just squirts a thin jet out now,
is it knackered?
-
It probably has dirt in it. If you have banged it or dropped it it may be cracked. If you can be bothered take it apart and take the spec of dirt out, or you'll have to buy a new one

sounds like it is done for. try using an in line filter in future which will prolong the life of the turbo. problem is you will need to clean the filter after about two hours because the filter clogs up and reduces the power of the turbo which is a pain but you will be surprised how much grit it collects.

Dependent on which turbo nozzle you have, spare ceramic inserts are available.
These do wear, you can crack them and if you press the trigger, whilst facing anything other than down, you can damage them by forcing the inner forward with the water supply.
We can get the spare kits, which are the ceramic end piece, a seal and the piece that spins, whatever that is called!!
