Last night while I was a mile from work, the 1/2" rubber coupling ruptured on the turbo coolant line. I thought how to I get out of this as I don't carry 1/2 heater hose in my trunk???
To my rescue was a roll of Permatek self sealing silicone tape. I cleaned up the busted hose and wrapped with the tape. It got me home without a problem. This afternoon, I replaced the busted hose.
I was very impressed how solid the repair became and it was extremely difficult to tear off even the smallest piece of tape.
Thought I would share the good news..
