  • Boost Gauge

    Boost gauge was working sooo sweet until this morning... It was boost as usual and then all of a sudden boost gauge started to go weird same with the car. I pull over and see the plastic T where the boost is hooked up to popped out. One of the wires popped out. The plastic part came out with it. I tried to put it back in it was waaay too loose.

    Any ideas what I should do to fix the leak now?

      Are you running an electronic gauge? if it's just a mechanical, shouldn't be a problem, just replace the wires. I would recommend putting a zip tie on the vacuum hose as well.

        There was zip ties but the actual plastic part came out with the hose so the zip tie to the one part that came out wouldnt help. It needs to be sealed closer cause its too loose. When Peter/Kris/Burt were helping me it was fluttering alot... maybe it was too loose with in the begining.

          I was thinking of adding some super-glue to my "t" fitting just to make sure its really secure.

            How hard is it to replace that hose - I had hell time getting my T in there. But it goes under the intake mani (?) and I dunno how much effort it would be to full access to it.
