Fg Xr6T - Hose Issue

[sjt]

Anyone else out there suffering the problem of the hose which connects via. a flimsy plastic tube into a rubber mount on top of the throttle body keep popping out? Ok, had some minor tweaks to the engine but can't seem to keep the platic section connected to to the top of the throttle body. I've had an interim fix of a bolt through the plastic section and cable tied to the throttle body section but I'm not sure how long this will give me. It's certainly not a permanent solution.

Thanks

Had it to the dealer for a possible warranty claim?

Yeah the stock rubber joiner isnt the best... make sure its clean inside and doesnt have oil vapours on the surfaces and it "should" be ok on stock boost.

Failing that you can use a new piece of silicon hose, 3.25inch dia, about 60mm long, and some strong clamps.

Atleast the throttle body on the FG has a bigger lip, than BA BF,to join to... one of hundreds of little improvments ford made to the FG
