Boost Leak Test Help Sat. 11/12 Options

[Kazz5]

This isn't really a one-man job and I'd like to feel that I did a thorough job once and for all. I'm looking for a couple of experienced ears (experienced at locating boost leaks, thanks) to pitch in. I've got everything I need to get her up and even effect any needed repairs and/or replacements (except JB Weld and the new FMIC had DAMN sure better not need it).

Saturday probably right after lunch but I'll get a time up once I clear it with the household social director, heh.

I'm in Peoria, off of Willow Knolls and I would imagine should have local help. Anybody's welcome, of course.

I want this done Saturday because, dammit, Sunday's for football - and that social director agrees.

I've got an ignition to go on as well - no big deal just four wires to splice, really, with 4 new plugs. And while I'm at the electrical I never did wire up the boost gauge for her lights ... hmmm... *laugh* I can take care of the little things. It's the boost leaks I'd like a good thorough once-over done.

Thanks!

boost leaks can definately be a one-man operation..........


You need to put enough air into her, so that it holds air long enough for you to find the leak........I have a tester with a guage on it. I replace the air filter with this tester.......I typicaly put 7-10psi into the system, and listen for leaks. If you cant hold that much air then you'll have a big enough leak you can find easily yourself........

I bought mine from boostpro.com

Good luck
