Trying to get this small piece of hose replaced to eliminate a coolant leak but not having any luck getting the hose on because of the tight quarters it is in. Any help on how to get this in is appreciated!

Take the pcv valve off the turbo mouthpiece and see if that give you any wiggle room. Be careful not to crush the plastic insert inside the pcv valve. If you don't have a set of hose pliers this would be the time to get some.

That's your PCV valve.

You could look at a PCV reroute.

These fella's are steering you correctly.

Only thing i'll add... get some split loom to cover those exposed wires while you're in there. Lil electrical tape to hold it in place once you get it on goes a long ways as well. Hopefully you'll always be able to look back and wonder why you installed the loom b/c 'it didnt seem to do anything'.

Leaks suck. best of luck brad.
