maybe a belt going round it ?

 

at a guess anyways ;)

 

Hey hey, for 15 years as well.

 

Cant believe toyota wont sell the pulleys separate. Going to see if I can make an ally pulley up for the old tensioner as its too good to throw in the bin.

This is the boost hose that goes onto the intake from my 93 TT. Not sure whats happened to it but its seen better days.

Yep, definetely heat and old age has caused that as its expanded and contracted and over time, heat made the rubber hose bubble and old age made the

hose looser i suspect.

It happened to my top rad hose, where it had heated up and gone cold over time, had made the hose slack and loose causing me to lose coolant...:(

Mine looks JUST like this. I need to get polished hardpipe replacement really, I havent looked at price though and quite scared to!

 

Anyone know where to get them? Looks like Envy have discontinued them.

Me too, I'm spending enough as it is just trying to catch up on all the things I should have done last year plus fixing a couple of surprise failures.

 

Nearly there though:)
