so i figured out why my car keeps over heating. the turbo feed line has a leak in it so coolant is being replaced by air. now is there any way i can patch this untill i can afford a bigger turbo. H.T. recomended putting a hose on it and clamping it down but the hose wont fit over the ends and i dont want to cut the line. would somthing like jb weld work or a really cold weld
thx

dont be cheap, replace the line. Temporary fixes usually will lead to more costly repairs and you wondering why you didnt fix it right the first time. Trust me I used to be the King of jerry rig, and it only worked about 30% of the time.
