Hi guy's..

Yesterday i took apart alot of stuff to get to my thermostat. well today whilst driving my boost seems to be leaking.

I can feel the 2nd turbo kick in (just) and i just know that the vacume lines are at fault.

I've had a search around and have not come up with any diagrams and further info on HOW to identify and change vacume lines.

I havent had the car long, not enought time to explore that packed out engine bay.

Thanks

 

It's ok i think...

After thinking how much of a rush i was in as the mozzies were biting me, i realise i didnt tighten up the big plastic thing (pipe thing?) that goes from the top of the intercooler back to the thing (??) opposite the throttle body.

i hope you understand the THING im talking about!!

I'm guessing this is effecting my boost, could it be ?

 

i find it hard to believe that doing a search for a hose diagram turned up NOTHING.
here is a very often refered to site for many things.

"Replace vacume"
"vacume hose"
"hose diagram"

Update your bookmarks, people

THE colored vacuum hose diagram is right here:

I think the thing you are referring to is the intake elbow. if the clamps are not tight, air will escape under boost.
