8875, Is my WG actuator F'ed
Posted by Narco, Mar-22-05 04:43 AM
Just Installed an Autometer boost guage last night. On the way to work this morning I get 22lbs on the onramp, and it was still rising... WTF? :shrug Needless to say, I backed off and drove it like a little girl the rest of the way to work. :wary I thought fuel cut was just after 16lbs. The guage is spliced into the line between the intake manifold and the FPR if that makes any difference.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Disregard...Just got off work and found the problem. My signal line from the compressor housing to wastegate actuator broke.:squint

Edited for stupidity :rolleyes

I'm still somewhat confused about the whole fuel cut thing though.
Shouldn't it have cut after 16 lbs?

Did your O2 voltage show lean?
