Bongo Fury

Ive found a fair bit of oil around the turbo under the passenger seat, its mostly on the hoses and actually seems to be coming form where the rubber hoses connect to the turbo. Ive taken these off cleaned and checked them, they are fine and were tightly connected. Is this normal??

Your leak something like this?

The photos from the first post have had their locations changed on Photobucket, so here they are again:-

exactly like that, but alot more oil, to the point where it was very very slowly dripping off the bottom of the hose.

You now gonna tell me christmas is off next year??

are ok, I just read the linked thread, so i guess its not too much to worry about then???, just give it a wipe with a tea towel and bobs your uncle...
it is very sticky and tarry.
a bit like black treacle.....



mmmmmmmmm black treacle

we had this on ours, i removed the pipes cleaned them up and replaced them back on the bongo.i tightened up the large jubilee clips a bit more and the leaking stopped.

Turbo deals tend to leak a litlte bit. You also get some oil fumes from the breather pipe running from the camcover to the inlet hose. It's fairly normal on older T. diesels. I took of the intercooler pipes recently and there was a small amount of black oil forming in them too.

thanks for the replys..
