Does a turbo need an oil pump?
The only time a turbo needs an external or separate oil pump is for pumping the discharged oil up into the oil sump when the turbo is mounted so low that the oil discharge tube will not drain into the oil sump. Turbos don’t need a lot of oil pressure and they need even less volume.
How long does it take for oil to get to the turbo?
This usually takes 5-10 minutes but depends on oil type and environmental conditions. Your turbo requires clean and healthy oil for maximum lubrication. If you oil has broken down, it’s not receiving the proper lubrication. You don’t want to cheap out on your oil.

Some ‘ turbo timer ‘ electric auxiliary oil pumps are sometimes fitted to turbocharged engines. These are a second oil pump that continues to run after the engine has stopped, providing cooling oil to the hot bearings of a turbocharger for some minutes, whilst it cools down.
Where does the oil pump go in a small engine?
Plunger pumps have been used in the past, but these are now only used rarely, for small engines .

How does a 12V oil feed pump work?
In this case the engine supplies the oil pressure and the pump simply returns the turbo oil to a point above the sump level.

How does oil get out of a turbocharger?
Well, it’s as simple as blocking off the oil return line on the turbocharger. The return line is connected to the crank case. The piston blow by back tracks up the return line. It will then push oil through the seals. And the seals are more designed to keep turbine and boost pressure out of the crank case. Do You Have Questions?
