Product FAQ

Inspect the old bearing for metal shavings, scoring, or debris. If FOD is present, clean the entire turbocharger oil system and intake path before installation to prevent premature failure of the new journal bearing.

Compare the port locations and sizes on the new bearing housing with the original unit. Verify that the cooling circuit connections align with your specific QSK38 engine configuration to ensure proper thermal management.

Confirm that the wastegate actuator and actuator details specifications match the original turbocharger setup. Incorrect pressure settings can affect boost control and engine performance in Cummins QSK38 applications.
