Re: boost leak

[Melissa Harris]

get yourself a nice long piece of hose put one end in your ear and move it around the engine bay like a stethoscope. first places to look are obviously joiner hoses, intercooler pipes and to some degree the intercooler itself. a lighter also works a treet but not with leaks about :)   good luck   brad     ----------------------------------------------------- Click here for Free Video!! http://www.gohip.com/free_video/ ----- Original Message ----- From: David Costello To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2000 12:11 PM Subject: Re: boost leak hahahaha the mental images are quite amusing   reminds me of that guy who died by strapping himself to the bottom of his truck then got his friend to drive around town so he could locate the source of a strange noise he didn't strap himself in the right place and ended up wrapped around the tailshaft   Dave -----Original Message----- From: Mick Ralph <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, 19 September 2000 12:08 Subject: Re: boost leak wardy do u know any dwarfs?? cheers Mick ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Ward To: Ozdat Mail List Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2000 4:13 AM Subject: boost leak Has anyone got any good ideas on how to find a boost leak ?  I can hear a small hissing sound come from the engine bay when fanging my FJ, but for the life of me I've checked every hose clamp, gasket etc and can't find the mongrel. It must be of a minor nature though, as the boost guage seems to read accurately.   The problem is trying to find where the leak is coming from whilst accelerating hard, hanging out the drivers window looking under the bonnet at 100kph.  Pretty hard as you have the climb back in to change gears :)   Ta,   Wardy   --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
