Re: help, dropped nut into intake

My former boss has one of the turbo V6 Ford Explorers. Back in 2020 (I think), he had it in for an issue and it ended up being the nut that held the turbo blades on was missing. For some reason the mechanic didn't think it was prudent to go looking for it and just simply replaced. Those things seem to have the ability to shake out of their hiding places at the most inopportune moments. About 1.5 hours south of St. Louis it made a pass through the turbo itself. You can imagine how that worked out.
