need help!

just rebuilt my 7m, and the first time i drove it my turbo seized from having no oil. i took the turbo off and i was thinking that it was just going to be a clogged feed line, when i tryed cranking no oil came out. someone said i might have not cranked it enough idk.

If you have any ideas as to why it would be greatly appreciated thanks.

I got it to pump oil tonight, so hopefully its good now ill check my feed line for to see if its clogged

Did you prime the oil system before startup?

i did prime the pump but not the turbo. and it ran for like 2hrs before this happened.

the problem re-occurred to night, it stopped pumping any oil to the turbo feed line port. i tried feeding a steel cable down it to see if i could break up whatever was clogong it but i dont think i was able to get far enough inside.

any one have any ideas as to where there could be a blockage, or has had a similar problem?
