Yeah...I know...I really do need to do it. I'm getting some ramps for Xmas that should allow me to do a drain and fill quickly.

So closing this one up, turns out that the repair to the turbo actually caused another hose to get blown off which was causing all my troubles

At least you figured it out. I replaced all of those small hoses with hoses from www.stylinmotors.com hoses. I double zipped the ones on the turbo and that's been a year ago....still going strong!!
