Rubber Elbow Gone..

[dicky b t5]

Hello all,

Noticed today that the Elbow by the T-stat has got a hole in it. :slap:
( Think it only happened today !)
Car seems to drive okay, no lights have appeared on the dash...?

Would a code be stored now and is it ok to keep driving the car as i cant get to the Dealers until the Weekend to pick up a new one.

Did'nt get a chance on the way home from work to see if it is Boosting right.

Any ideas. Dicky.

If you drive it nicely then you might be alright but if you boot it, it will probably throw up ecu light as per vacuum leak. Then there will be a code stored. Bit of a pig to change that one too. Need small pinkys.

Nice one Dicky, you are the man for that job then lol,
It can be done with 2 pairs of needle pliers, so i have been told, take 2 minutes.
