I need a Vacuum hose expert

I'm just getting my ZX back together, after I had a couple of new turbo's fitted, trouble is that it's not running very well.

 

The main problems are, tick over is up and down, some times just cuts out, blitz BOV’s not blowing off any more, one of my HKS boost gauges doesn't work any more, running very rich, petrol vapors out of exhaust, and a strange whistling noise coming from around the bell housing.

 

I've had the turbo's checked, and they're fine, I think that one of the many hose's has been put in the wrong place. Nightmare! :confused:

 

I've downloaded a schematic of the hose's but trying to figure it out is hopeless, I need photographs! Or best yet a working ZX parked next to me to double check.

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Pete.

:cry:

That makes 2 of us :D

 

I've removed loads of junk from my engine and it's been a year since I saw where eveything went.

Anyone fancy touring the UK with a working Z? ;)

That's a good idea! If there's anyone out there who wants to do the trip to Leeds, stop in at Loughborough first; the beers are in the fridge, and the steaks on the barby! :duffer: :dance:

lol, pay for me fuel and i'll do the trip for you guys, only just fitted mine back in, and she fired up 1st time no problems at all! :) so hoses and locations are all fresh in the mind :P

Matey! If that's a genuine offer, then no problem! If you can sort this problem out for me and get my Z running the way it should, was, then not only will I chuck you a tank of the "good stuff" but there'll be a six pack in the fridge for ya! :dance: :D
