if you read post #522 it explains that i cant test it from maf. i have tested TIP on its own tho

 

[myk3]

yah i know what you mean! but i dont think it will do any harm, im so sure all the vortexers do it!

 

[h17och]

ive done it and it dont work. just bleeds the pressure thru turbo so you cant check anything!

 

[myk3]

ok cool! i guess a way to test ya vacs will be to clamp them all then do the same test you did before.

 

[h17och]

surely they get pressureize when i done the test on the charged pipe work and mani?

or am i looking at it wrong?

right i retested it the other night and got to 35 psi with a slight hiss from internals (valves letting by) and then BBAANNNGGG!!!! and by feck it was a loud bang!! it shot the tin of WD40 that was acting as a bung across the garage! i hit the deck like an old man from the war!! lol

today the brand new fuel pump turned up! got it fitted and when i started her up the AFR was a tiny bit lower on idle! 17.5!!

didnt look promising

then i took her for a spin and when i floored it i saw nothing over 12 (about 11.5) thats the richest its ever been! which is great. just got to sort the lean idle now!?!?

still going jbs on saturday to sort out map. i think it may need adapting to my airfilter as its tiny lol

ill keep ya posted!

im now gonna go over all the problems that i wouldnt touch untill i sorted the fueling!!

on goes the large port head
