Raising the Dead

[Ty 1450]

My Ty has been sitting for a year, i just started bringing her back to life. I replaced the water pump and changed the oil twice to make myself happy. No water leaks and she's idling great, to finish off the day i wanted to break boost in the drive to hear my blow off valve and end my day with a smile. Of coarse I'm not smiling, when i was break boosting i could hear the turbo spool up but i couldn't get over 0 psi. I check all the fittings for the A/A everything looks tight, any suggestions. Also replaced the belt.

Re: Raising the Dead

What gauge are you reading off? Have you got an aftermarket one?

Vac lines old/perished? Is your BOV working right or dumping pressure?

Stock turbo/wastegate? Wg stuck open?

Re: Raising the Dead

I have a aftermarket gauge, and by boost controller has one also. I thought about the BOV while laying in bed last night. I'll check it tonight to see if it's bypassing. Thanks for the tips

Re: Raising the Dead

BOV is working correctly, had a friend check the bov while break boosting.
