Just out of interest was the split age related or worn through by chaffing / rubbing on something?
Good work Mate!

Good work Mate!
Any pics? To help with your descriptions!! :P :worthless:rolleyes::wink:
Like you say fuel prices etc etc.
They're not first choice anymore and as such don't seem to be selling unless they're really cheap :o(
Have you a link etc to your eBay goody please?
Good work mate, keep us posed though eh?
I've got the BCS to turbo long run of pipe to do as it seems to be one of the few originals left.
At the weekend I pulled one pipe off the side of the...
Bloody good idea... but it's late and I'm being blonde which pipe did you give a good blow? (!) Oh and about the MBC you say your turbo is smaller...how do you mean? Are you not running an 850 / V70?...
Spot on for that - cheers. I had a similar post on ..ahem.. another forum which came back with the same kind of reply. It makes sense now, and yes the pipe below does follow around the block to the...
Nope conected to nothing, just dissapears inside the 'jacket' next to the cam sensor side of the engine block.
All other turbo pipes are connected i.e. BCS and vaccum pipes back to the inlet...
As I don't have access to a calibrated boost gauge, is the normal dash mounted gauge reliable and if so, how far into the white should it safely boost?
Cheers

(Good link by the...
So ok to vent to 'fresh air'?
It shouldn't be connected to somewhere?
Mark
As the title says....
It is located down near the turbo but doesn't have anything connected to it. Any ideas please? Oh on a 1995 850 T5 by the way.
Cheers

Yes, more 'go' is required, just wanted to know a little more about the installation etc. Like I said my T4 has a lot more grunt and 'push you back in the seat' boost so on that basis would suggest...
Ok probably a basic question I know but.....
Can someone give me some help as to where a MBC would be plumbed in, and basically are you taking the pipes from the BCS and fitting the MBC there...
Whats the correct i/d of the vac pipes? Plus how many are there to replace so far I've sussed:
3 from the BCS
1 from the recirc valve(?) (the triangle plate on the side of the turbo which goes...
Hmm keep us posted please, I'm on a vac leak too. I can hear some whistling when on boost so will be interested to hear your results. That said I have had a nosey around and a few of my pipes have...
Ha ha that was a neighbours van from the Yeadon branch nr Leeds when I lived up there!

2nd'd and also how easy is it to change the diaphram? And cost too??
Cheers
you can prob guess my next question.....
Where is the 4mm / 5mm / 6mm pipe.......
Just a quickie really, what is the correct diameter of pipe work for all the vacuum pipes/boost pipe etc is it 5mm id?
I'm tempted to replace all mine. Some look quite new - should they be clamped...
Eeek so £89 gives you 300 miles?? Gulp!
Holy cow What size tank is it? I'm guessing your're looking at £70 or so to fill it? 15 gallon??
Interesting thread. My recent T5 purchase seems to be holding out at 24.2 mpg that with a good bit of M25 motorway driving too Grr.
That said I've just serviced it so hoping the MPG will creep up,...
