Do you like finding boost leaks too Mc Funbot

If so I may have to take a drive lol

Yes mate I dont mind at all. Keeps me busy.

May have to take the bumper off and have a look at the INTERCOOLER pipes just incase there's no leaks from there :/ and just read a post and someone said that a faulty thermostat could cause this problem?

Boost leaks are a pain to find. It takes time. Its normaly the simplest thing.its hard to help with stuff as im better with my head in the bonnet. I can look an work out stuff better. And naming things that could make a fault is endless.
The engine coolant temp sensor can make a million problems. Thats always over looked and you cant map leaks out.

Right today's outcome. From cold this morning drove less than half a mile then went into limp mode so I left it and got the car upto temp then turned car off back on and I have done 35 miles without going into limp mode :/ also just gone through another tin ov carb cleaner and nothing making the engine dip. And I have just done that mod to stop it scrapping when slowing down mostly in 3rd and it's worked a treat so least one thing good as come out ov it today.

I'm starting to think I've got a little leak but is some thing to do with the fuel system. I replaced the fuel filter yesterday but that made no difference. I do need some 1 who knows these cars to have a look at it.

16795 is sai incorrect flow if I remember right. Only way that will affect running is split vac pipe to the sai pump on the block.
