Hi guys

just after a bit of advice/info, i have a 1994 wrx import with 88,000km on it

over the past few days the car has been down on power as if the turbo wasnt coming in (no real pull) and today i noticed a smell of anti-freeze so i pulled over and see that the bottom radiator hose was leaking so i got the car back home and checked the hose and it has no splits ? it has a new jubilee clip on it and it was cleaned a few months ago when my old radiator popped (usual plastic cracked)
the car never got a chance to overheat as i was really close to home

it may not be headgasket but with this milage and with the leak is it worth just doing the gaskets now rather then waiting for it to go and maybe causing more problems for myself

thanks pete

 

not worth doing the head gasket until you now its gone to be fair you might be best checking for over thigns like turbo pipes leaking that sort of thing if your down on power
