Intercooler to EGR hose.

andrewinpopayan · 22nd May 2015, 17:37

Is it possible to change the intercooler to EGR hose without taking the bumper off.?

I did the Viton "O" rings a couple of months ago, but it now appears the hose has split.

Thanks
Andrew

Hi Andrew
Yes it should be as long as you have the lower jubilee clip facing the right way as to loosen it, hopefully you change the angle of the jubilee clip when you did the O-rings Arctic

Hi everyone, I have answered my own question "YES" and I did put the jubilee clip the right way round

Question finished.

Thanks to all
Andrew

Final bit. I got my ZOOM back but along with the split hose, I found the lug on the plastic 90 bend had broken off and all the gubbins from the intercooler was drifting free. It received the jubilee clip with self tapper cure (thanks Arctic), the spankability has come back. Maybe I should buy one of them FORD V8's
