Welcome to the forum

You must have an International Ranger T6, we don't have these in North America, and last I looked Alabama was in North America, lol.

So I have a feeling you are not in Alabama

South African Ranger forum will have info on your Ranger

We didn't have diesel engine options after 1987 in our Rangers and never had turbo option on any engine, gas or diesel.

There is suppose to be oil going to the turbo, to lube it and cool it, it gets very hot.
So you could have blown a seal, or you may have put wrong cleaner into fuel tank.
