re installing and if so how hard is it to get to the other clamp that holds the U bend to the throttle body once the pipe is back in place .
once the pipe is back in place I just can’t see how you get in tighten up that clamp I have big long hands which doesn’t help
in the video I install and tighten the elbow to the metal pipe.Quote:

[QUOTE=Grappler;2685734]Finally found time to change out the turbo hoses.
I unbolted the water pump and swung it out of the way. One extra bolt after metal tube is unbolted Plenty of space as you can see in the pic. Even my old thin skin didnt let blood out!
The BAS hose kit mentions trimming the turbo end of the hose on RHD. I needed to trim about 12mm off both ends of the elbow under the thottle box to get it to fit without fouling engine mount bracket.

i think as it only one more bolt to remove I’ll go this option as it will give a bit more room for my ham hands
question ………if I unbolt the coolant pump as above is there any gasket that I would need to replace and am I likely to get coolant spilling out all over the place
forewarned is forearmed
appreciate all the excellent info …….I’m a bit of a novice mechanic and appreciate all the great help
