  |
|
I have a gas Perkins on my mf 135 and was thinking about adding a turbo. I have seen it done on a Oliver 88, 77, and a farmall m with great sucess. I would have to fabricate most of the components. Has anyone heard of this being done on a ag3-152?

Hi Matt,
I've not seen a turbo added to a petrol 152 as there are very very few in the UK let alone Perkins petrol engines. Don't think that by adding a turbo you can drag more power out of a worn engine. For it to be beneficial the engine must be in new or extremely good condition. Fabrication of pipework etc is only part of the job. It is essential that your oil feed and return are correct too.

Would be much easier if it was diesel. MF did have some 3 cylinder turbo models, and some 4.236 with turbo also.

The the oil supply and return I have figured out, the part I'm stuck on is to try and pull through the carb which works well or push through the carb. Forcing air into the carb would be easy to configure but I'm unsure if will work. I'm sure it can be done, I just don't know how to setup the carb
