## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Boost leakage or whistling
-   Oil mist around a hose joint
-   Reduced power
-   Pipe cracking or deformation
-   Increased black smoke

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Clean both sealing faces before assembly and check the rubber sleeves, seals and clamps; hardened, swollen or split sleeve rubber will not hold boost on a new pipe
-   Seat the pipe fully onto its spigots and set each clamp behind the bead before tightening, so pressure cannot push the joint apart
-   Align and support the pipe on its brackets so it is not pulled into tension — a pipe held under strain chafes, cracks and works its clamps loose
-   Check the bore for oil sludge and soot before fitting and clean it out; carried-over oil softens sleeve rubber and blackens a new pipe from the inside
-   Tighten clamps and any flange fasteners to the figures in the workshop manual for your engine, then re-check them after the first run under load
