Re: Turbo Hose blew off again!

I'm not sure. Are hot and cold tubes called CAC tubes or just the cold side? I do know this Hot side uses blue rubbers and cold side uses black rubbers.

Their all CAC Tubes from the Turbo output to the intake just behind the EGR Valve. The major problem areas as I have read, seem to be the Hotside connection off the Turbo and the Coldside connection to the intake. This all seems to depend on the build date of the truck, recalls, TSBs performed and boost pressure. Basicly all connections are prone to blow-off if the clamp is loose and oil gets between the hose and connection, especially if you experiance an overboost condition.
