Then why does New Holland recommend this proceedure in their Owners Manual when hauling the tractor if it"s an old wives tale?
All that has to happen for air to flow through the engine and the turbo is for one the intake and exhaust valve on one cylinder to be partly open as it is bewteen the exhaust the intake stroke. the turbo machinery doen"t get damaged. It a lack of oil to the beaings on the turbo that are damaged. AIrcraft engine have their oil pumps driven by the high speed shaft through the gear box so thay can windmill forever with no harm to the bearings. Not so with these little turbo"s. The same thing tht can happen with sustained winds thugh it"s unlikely that you can have sustained winds of high speed for many hours.
It"s not uncommon fr turboed tractors to be hauled for many hours at freeway speeds. I know. I just brought our tractor (NH TD95D) up from New Mexico to Western Montana. I darn sure followed the OEM"s instructions to tape over the exhaust pipe. You all can believe what you want. For most of you, you"ll never have to worry about the possibility so so it"s a non-issue. nonetheless it is a possibel source of damage to the turbo" bearings.
