When hauling equipment with turbo chargers can any one say that the turbo actually turns from the air going around the exhaust pipe. I know owner manuals will say to tape up the exhaust stack to save the turbos. This is supposed to keep them from spinning when there is no oil pressure.
I have hauled equipment for years with out covering the exhaust pipe and have had no ill rusults.
For air to turn the turbo there must be air flow thru the exhaust system. For this to happen it must go in the intake and thru the engine and out the exhaust system. This cannot physically happen unless the engine is running. Because no air can flow freely thru the intake and exhaust simultaneously , because no two valves are open at the same time on any one cylinder.
For air to flow freely thru any one cylinder both valves would have to be open at the same time.
Granted that both valves are open a minute amount during overlap but for an engine to stop at this very TDC is very unlikely.
