#101960, "did an air leak test"


          

i crated a "boost leak" tester so see where im loosing vacume. i have a low bumpy idle around 1k to 700.. and ive repclaed sensors and checked voltages and all that, i checked vacume and it was ~ -10psi at idle and i found one place it was leaking. at the tube of my EGR.I fixed that but when i pump it full of air i can still hear air cumming out. its coming out of the EGR itself. is that normal os does that mean its bad? and vac is stil holding a ~ -10 psi.

LMFAO, Is it CUMMING out!?!?! lol man c'mon now...COMING!!

Do a leak test w/ the car off. Open the Throttle all the way up and pressurize your system. If you hear leaking, but you cannot tell where it is coming from, spray soapy water around every VAC line/fitting known. When you pressurize the system now, you will see bubbles forming around a leak emoji Good Luck.

Keep the updates CUMMING, lol.

EDIT: I just want to say I am not trying to be mean, I have just been super ass bored for the last past half an hour and then I read that and it made me laugh pretty good. Haha

hahaa
well im glad i made you laf. i did it with the car off, and i saw that i had put 10lb in it. and then it leaks out, out of the EGR itself (the big siver valve thing attached to the side of the head) is that normal? i didnt find any more leaks, and it seems to be somewhat better but not quite.
