hey guys

i have a vaccum leak in my FD, at least i and my friends say it sounds like a vacum leak, and my secondary isnt kicking in. how hard would it be to fix my own vacum leak with a 338 mechanics set of tools? anyone attempted this? lemme know what you guys think, either bust out the tools or head to a shop.

thanks much

do you even know where the leak is? or what is leaking? most of the time you have to replace whatever is leaking

it sounds alot like its coming from the turbo region. whats weird is twice now the secondary turbo has come online twice now, so i know the turbo is okay, since its a sound from that region im sure that its a leak from around there. i was figureing it on being a line or something, i dont get how it could just randomly come online either. anyways, let me know on my options, thanks
