fredm Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Look in Club Downloads then Engine then find the thread entitled Vacuum Diagrams. Should find what you want there. You could also checkout http://www.max-boost.co.uk lots of good stuff there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnA Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 ... i have noticed on my car that the pressure tank hoses are really badely kinked, what could this cause? if anything. If airflow is constricted, then it could take longer to pressurise the VSVs, affecting the synchronisation of the sequential operation.

JohnA Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 It is easy to check if this is the case, with a boost gauge Teed-off the EGCV and the EGBV if needed. If the actuators are not pressurised at the right time, then I'd check the hoses and the tank next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
