Have I got This Right? - 1.8Turbo
 

I've had all my turbo/intercooler/radiator pipes and hoses off for a while. A couple of days ago I refitted everything. Some things seemed a bit tighter than I recall so I'd be obliged if a 1.8Turbo owner could veryfy this photo. The headertank isn't fitted yet.

Though it's all back into the right locations. this layout looks wrong to me. Shouldn't the pipe on the right with the dimple sit lower down?
Should it be underneath the large 'S' hose from the air filter?
Now baffled.


EDIT: A photo of your setup will help a lot.

I think that is the correct routing - I have a couple of pics - not great but it seems to show the same route/location.


i'll have a look at the Car when i have a chance tonight :}

Not currently at home, but here's a pic that shows that general area..

(TC, if you can wait until tomorrow eve, I'll get a few photos taken of the coolant and air hoses in my engine bay; and I'll post them up here).

Cheers,
Karl.

Thanks Karl, I appreciate it.
Mine just seems different from what I remember.
Daft really, you look at the engine so often, yet when you strip it down, you can't remember how it was..

Hi TC,

Sorry for not getting back sooner. I'm away from home at the moment but found this photo in my archive from a while back.. not sure if it's of any help.. :shrug:

I'll get a couple of proper photos maybe tomorrow or Friday eve, but I think this dimple is to accommodate the header tank in that area, so your set-up looks ok to my eye..


Cheers,
Karl.

Many thanks. It does appear to be fine. Everything's now running normally.
Cheers,
TC

Thank goodness for these digital cameras that cost nowt to get a picture. I now photograph everything before I start to strip it down.

As apposed to ones girl friend.----:eek::eek:------:D

I can't remember that either.
