Turbo backfire
What does someone know about Turbo back fire. How common is it, what causes it and how dangerous is it. My Tradewinds is being towed into a shop in the morning and we are going home without it. :(

I WANT A NEW NEWMAR GASSER, You think this is a good excuse. Beautiful machines but when you get my age you just don't buy a new anything unless it's a new bottle of pills.:)
When we bought our first DP my nephew, a diesel mechanic by trade, said no matter what we do always let the turbo cool before shutting it down. I'm not saying that's what happened in your case, just a suggestion.
As to the Newmar comment, I once spoke to an elder man who had just bought a new MH. He said he financed it as long as they'd let him, and he insured the loan. He was making the smallest payment possible and figured he'd never pay it off, and the loan insurance would keep his family from having to pick up the pieces when he passed.
