Over boost fix
Posted: Wed Apr 23, 2014 5:23 pm
Had probs at QR recently when the boost went up to 25psi up from 18 lbs and have been adjusting the gate controll every which way and tearing my hair out so decided to remove 1 of the hoses controlling the ext gate.
It was a SS braided one so to test it I plugged one end and sunk it in a bucket of water and put an air duster to the open end and the bucket of water turned into a mini spa bath :x :glare:
Installed a new hose and all is well again :D
PS thank goodness I had a GFB TURBO FUSE set to 25 lbs as it certainly saved the motor as when it hits 25psi it allows the BOV to open and release excess pressure.
