Hi all, just connected up my tdi oil cooler using 10mm aeroquip hose, Ran it on the road for approx 10mins then returned home to findthe road and rear of bus coated in oil!! Checked the new hose to find it had burst next to the oil cooler sandwich plate. This hose has a burst pressure limit of 1000psi!, what the hell has happened? the hose was bloody tight to push on the fittings and I noticed the hose became extremly soft when hot.
