Pressure tested the...
« on: 12 October 2008, 10:59:43 »
coolant system today & found this



its the hose from coolant bridge to throttle housing, with the engine at running temp but switched off could this cause a sizeable leak at the rear of the engine?
I pressurised the system to 15 psi & it drops about 1/2 psi over 10 mins but held constant at 13 psi, cant see any other leaks as yet so should i keep looking?

It isn't going to help. Don't forget that it could leak worse when up to temperature.
