Turbo line off - still drive?
Hey all,
ok, starting hearing a whistling noise. Yesterday popped hood and sure enough the 3/8" hose line on the turbo had broken or rotted at the fitting. Does it hurt, heck she is running great, to drive a day or two with this line off?? Will fix Saturday Thanx, Dave |

HIGHLY INADVISABLE. You will be relying solely on your overboost solenoid to prevent your pistons from melting. Run dont walk to your nearest store and fix it in the parking lot. 2 minute Fix.

Mine is kinda sqishy...I think I will replace it soon. I have a boost gauge though, so I'd know right away if something's up. I'll make sure its in good shape on our other two cars though.
