BA wagon turbo conversion using ford parts

[k31th]

where is it leaking, specifically?

[Lunchietey]

Where it goes into the back of the pump. Steel line with the green oring. Was coated in RTV too and I actually thought it looked really good.

 

I don't think there's really a way to fix it without removing the exhaust manifold...

 

The one I was iffy about is perfectly fine of course although I wouldn't have cared as much if that had leaked because it would be an easy fix.

BA/BF is different to FG line/pump so make sure you got the right assembly 

 

I piss off the green o ring for a typical black o ring, works without sealant  

[Lunchietey]

Definitely the right line, came off a BA. I'll just have to try again but this time fill the f**king thing with RTV! ?

[Lunchietey]

My fault, oring had bound on pushing the pipe in and rolled over part of the lip. Now gotta go order another one.

 

@JETURBO which black oring did you have success with? Do you remember where you bought it?

Howdy mate, I measured and took some photos of this a while back. I can't remember where they are but they are on here somewhere.

Found that thread, thank you! Now just to get an oring that size locally lol

[Lunchietey]

Ok so new genuine ford oring. Will NOT go in without trying to roll back over the pipe. I am a plumber by trade and have fairly solid hand skills but this is pissing me off now.

Lick it.
