Lew91 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Oh dear Where's the coolant actually coming from? Quote
turbo Grant Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Oww not good. Don't put cold water in let it cool down first. But would recommend driving it lol Quote
iamlegend Posted June 22, 2013 Author Posted June 22, 2013 I don't understand thow that is impossible It's brand fucking new it's was new from yesterday and run in!! It's at the back under the inlet manifold Wtf Arrgghhhhhh I've not hardly fucking drive it expect when driving home Quote
Lew91 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Are you sure one of the TB coolant hoses hasn't come off? Quote
waderz06 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Maybe water pump/gasket. Need more info on where the water is coming from? Like what area of the block? Front? Back? Gearbox side? Hopefully it's just a split pipe. Quote
iamlegend Posted June 22, 2013 Author Posted June 22, 2013 This is crazy This is a forged built engine My stock engine is still alive and boosted had been done This had been 1 day I have not boosted it at all I've spent like 4k on a engine what lasts a day eh Quote
iamlegend Posted June 22, 2013 Author Posted June 22, 2013 I'm stuck on the side of the fucking road and water poured out its right under the inlet manifold guys steam poured everywhere Quote
Glanza-Ben Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 (edited) It's does sound like tb coolent hose has came off or split Edited June 22, 2013 by Glanza-Ben Quote
Lew91 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Sounds like a busted pipe to me there's plenty of them around that area. I'd expect a leak or 2 within the first week of a fresh build to be honest. There's alway something that doesn't get put back in its original place and runs through or what ever. Might feel frustrating now but it could be a simple fix. Quote
rinseep82 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Deffo sounds like a pipe has popped off there's coolant lines that go to the inlet isn't there sounds like 1 of those has shot it's load expect a few teething problems on a fresh build dude it always happens Quote
Danb Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Get it recovered home and give TD a ring in the morning - I doubt nick or mike will be there now.... Quote
DevonGT Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 expect a few teething problems on a fresh build dude it always happens Maybe, but pipes etc shouldn't be one of them. Quote
yaristurbo Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Don't let this get out of hand !It could be anything from a manufactures defect water pump, blown hose or a human error ( let's remember we are all human) Quote
Lew91 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Maybe, but pipes etc shouldn't be one of them.Depends where the pipes come from if you catch my drift? Quote
rinseep82 Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 It's not always someone's fault if a pipe comes off it can happen anytime just try to keep ya chin up mate and solve the problem it will all come good Quote
TurboTobz Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Possibly the hose from the middle/rear of block up to inlet for auto choke iirc? Quote
iamlegend Posted June 22, 2013 Author Posted June 22, 2013 Not pointing fingers at nee one.. Lets hope it is Straight away thinking the worse as I can't actually look in the bay as I've broke Down on a dual carriage way so can't look... getting charged 100 quid for tow of the police as where on danger zone and recovery ain't here for a other hour Sweet Quote
TurboTobz Posted June 22, 2013 Posted June 22, 2013 Thieving bastards, anyhow it does sound minor hopefully you caught it early and TD boys will have it sorted for you with out a doubt Quote
iamlegend Posted June 22, 2013 Author Posted June 22, 2013 Wey hey who ever said and phoned mike basically saying I've said there shit your talking shit! I haven't said ONCE it was td Quote
