hiya guys my boost seems to be very intermitant, uk 1993 auto turbo, sometimes when i hit the floor wit my right foot i dont get any turbos its jus like a normal 3.0 engine acc which has got me in some trouble lol, other times ill slam it down and jus get pure turbos and go like it should, even today went towards an island boostin well then after the island jus nothin???? please help

 

regards andy

I would do an ECU check to see if there are any problems coming up. If the detonator sensor is faulty (code 34 I think) then you will be on half boost. Very often its the loom to the sensor that fails, and it could be that which is now breaking down, intermitantly.

Are you sure your pressing the pedal to the floor and hitting kickdown ?

does the box change down or stay the same ?
