Re: Alternator? OR: How I wasted $300
In a pinch, the turbo hoses can be reused if you hit them with some AquaNet. I've never had one come back off using the hairspray.
Also.... Another reason to beware of shade-tree mechanics is they don't have insurance to cover you if they cause more damage. Even something like a stray bolt in the wrong place can earn you a new motor. All real shops have insurance to cover incidents like that, and affiliated (NAPA, AAA etc) chains will also throw in a nationwide warranty.
