Default Woo Hoo!... oh cr*p...

Special thanks to NorCal Relics for getting my 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo up and running - replaced clutch master and slave cylinders, etc. Now the turbo is leaking. I remember seeing the fix on this forum a while back so I tried doing a search and I can't find it.

So what am I looking at here to fix it? Is this something I can do or should I have the mechanic do it while he has the car? "The car"... I haven't named her yet...[sm=drlove.gif]

two tubes? Is it cutting out on boost or what are the symptoms. If it is, it is more than likely a split hose somewhere on the charge pipes.

You should make sure what is leaking if you are going to try to fix it.
