Turbo coolant fitting blew
Hellur,
I was wondering if anyone could help me with this question. I just redid my turbo lines and i had to put a 90 degree bend in one and than put a bigger hose over it to my turbo fitting. I was revving my car to make sure the one fitting wasnt leaking and on the other side started squirting coolant. I am obviously going to replace the line but i was wondering could that have happened bcuz there it too much pressure built up where i have the bigger hose reduce to the smaller or could it be that the line was just weak. or could both be a cause. I also notice a kink in the line that burst. It is a braided steel line.
thanks in advance
