Hello,
i'm christoph from austria and i'm new here and in this supercharging thematik.
I own a 1996 K1500 5,7 Vortec with an SN 2000 kit mounted. I have some problems with this Supercharger, because it won't work the way it should be. i opended the blower and did not notice any signs of wear inside. I reassembled the unit again and put in some ATF and drove the pulley with the electric drilling machine, but the impellor was moving kinda slow and stopped at a certain speed.
Can you tell me how this unit works? does the oil pressure pushes the impellor shaft towards the balls? has it anything to do with the oil pressure?
What signs of wear should i find, if there are some? I think the ball drive does not work propperly. there is to less pressure on the balls.
Are there any rebuild manuals available?
I hope anybody can help me to get this problem fixed, that i can enjoy my truck again.
thanks Christoph
