Just got in from the shop at a lovely 2:05am.
Took a major setback tonight.
First the good news:
-Power steering reservoir is mounted
-Power steering lines are all crimped and installed
-Driveshafts are installed and look perfect
-Engine has oil and doesn’t leak
The problem:
I filled the engine with coolant and had a steady leak out of the turbo coolant pipe. I prayed for a loose bolt or fitting. No luck.
I have a small crack in the line. Tomorrow I’m going to hopefully remove it without having to pull the entire turbo off, then weld the crack closed.
No room for failure here.
