Hi Artic, what’s the best way to cushion the impact of the left hand screw just under the turbo cooler hose (viewing from from vehicle) as is cutting into tube wall and likely to create a hole if not avoided?

Best,
Anthony
Countersunk the hole on mine and fitted a countersunk screw.
If it's the one circled in the pic, I put that jubilee clip round the hose.
HI Guys.
Are we talking about this bolt/screw below.

I used a dome stainless steel screws with a tap washer under it, and if i can remember when i replaced the hose, i cut a piece off the old one and wrapped round the new one, but can not find the photo.

Later i replaced all the hoses for silicone ones.

Yeah that’s the one. Are the silicon are better than standard - the bright colour certainly would show up a leak very quickly.

Good Idea, how did you secure the piece of old tube on top of the screw between other tube?

Cheers,
