Help Help Is it a vacum leak

[Bobbys14]

? Check the vacume pipes, one way is to spark up a fag and remove an end of a vacume pipe and blow the smoke through the pipe if theres a leak you will see the smoke coming out where the pipe is damaged if you get me!!

I'll try that now but i dont understand why the waste gate is open would my actuator be gammy??

Standard actuator on a gt2871r, the car was not started for a year so actuator would have got no use!! Do you know should it be open on idle??

see can you move the actuator arm goin to the wastegate by hand could be tight from left idle doubt it but try it anyway.

Rite been out at the car for the evenin, i blocked the airfilter pipe and put 2bar of pressure in to the system got a few minor blows tightened clips and that sorted them out no more leaks then started the car and no change at all?????

check your waste gate, it shouldnt be open on idle.

Its an internal so actuator could be my problem? Tryed to force it closed more when the car running but just wouldn't go!! Would the timing be off on idle? its a reconditioned engine with metal head and s13 inlet sprocket vvl removed! Really getting to me now!

check the vacume pipe thats goin to the actuator from the boost solinoid on the right turret!!
