And what’s the service history of the engines. Often times a hose that comes off the turbo to aftercooler connection is indicative of a clogging aftercooler. When was the last time the aftercooler was serviced and exactly how was it serviced? Also what are the condition of the connection hoses and clamps? At a minimum get a screwdriver on all the clamps and ensure all are tight. Consider new hoses and clamps if they are older.
