Something to check regularly??
Just pulled valve covers off to do glow plugs and wiring, etc. Big thing I found was the intake boot that slips over the turbo, was cracked almost all the way around, right before the clamp. Not sure if this was from old age, or vibration. Anyway, that's a huge source of dirty air, and you couldn't tell it was cracked without pulling it off. Just an FYI thing.
