Intercooler, installing nipple
Background:
This Service Bulletin describes how to install a nipple to the drainage hole in the intercooler. This will prevent any oil from exiting the drain hole but allows condensation to drain out. If, for any reason, a customer has concerns regarding an oil spot on the ground or the garage floor, a nipple should be installed in the intercooler.
