Turbo manifold??

[LegoHead]

I have a leak somewhere near the manifold, only started blowing from here this morning. Any ideas?

Is it worth getting the garage to drop sub frame and remove or could it just be a few bolts that needs tightening?

Or could i get some paste and fill it up.lol.

i've heard of a few with manifolds that have cracked

 

[LegoHead]

I'll pinch a mirror from work tomorrow to look for cracks. I managed a quarter turn on one bolt.lol.!!!


On a seperate not I just looked at the coil pack and ignition leads.:S

The numbers on the leads dont match up with the numbers on the coilpack.

Lead 4 goes to 1 on coilpack
Lead 3 goes to 2 on coilpack
Lead 2 goes to 3 on coilpack
Lead 1 goes to 4 on coilpack

The leads then go to sparkplugs. Starting with 4 at the left(drivers side) to 1 on the right.

Is this correct? Surely the lead numbers should match the coilpack numbers?



very confused......

 

[Fred@BTM]

yeah they should!

1 is nearest the cambelt and 4 nearest the gearbox (i think!)

Well i have 4 near the cambelt and 1 on gearbox side, so if you say they should be other way round then as they are also reversed on the coilpack it should be fine.

Surely the car wouldnt run well at all if they are wrong way round?

is this right Fred?
