Re: boost leak

[Mark Ward]

G'day Terry.  In reply to your email, I'm no longer using your obv, I've now got a plug in place instead. I'm wondering if it's the idle speed control valve (which is in place but not being used) is leaking.  Being busy at work with all the goings on at Homebush Bay, so haven't really had time to fiddle with it.    I'm not sure what email you are referring to about using a hobs switch etc.  (My missus reads my mails and if she thinks they are "boring", she thinks she's doing me a favour and deletes 'em before I even see them !) ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Rudd To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2000 3:45 AM Subject: RE: boost leak Wardy, Are you still using my Nispro OBV or have you got another one on. I'd start with that as those things are prone to leaking, my original BOV sounded a bit like a perpetual fart under the bonnet and it wouldn't surprise me if the Nispro is getting tired if you're still using it. Did you see my earlier post on using a hobs switch so you poq that OBV anyway. I'll put something together for you if you're interested and it will cost ~$50 + gst to get some bits.   regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Mark Ward Sent: Tuesday, 19 September 2000 4:14 AM To: Ozdat Mail List Subject: boost leak Has anyone got any good ideas on how to find a boost leak ?  I can hear a small hissing sound come from the engine bay when fanging my FJ, but for the life of me I've checked every hose clamp, gasket etc and can't find the mongrel. It must be of a minor nature though, as the boost guage seems to read accurately.   The problem is trying to find where the leak is coming from whilst accelerating hard, hanging out the drivers window looking under the bonnet at 100kph.  Pretty hard as you have the climb back in to change gears :)   Ta,   Wardy   --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
