What did you do to your zed today?
If your passing and fancy a coffee? I know once you get in and start driving it may be a forest gump type of drive............lol I have been out for a nice spin tonight and she is running best she has since I put her back on the road.......... 10 Psi of boost, stalling disappeared and idles smoothly..... Just need to thank the magic fix it guys that sneaked into engine bay overnight and sorted the issues for free...... thank you..... lol Now for a nice cruise to buy a tin and make Rolandas's boost leak tester............... May go to Tesco's in Birmingham for the drive though.......lol

Stalling problem, low boost and forgetting to connect the recirc valves?
Well I connected the vacuum pipes to the recirc valves and no difference with noise or sign they are even working........ pretty much..... no boost....... and still she is trying to stall........ must be a boost leak somewhere........ or something come loose.... Going to start at the turbo's and work outward with gaskets and then vacuum pipes to the boost controller....... main Pipes and clamps from turbo's to the intake.......

Stalling problem, low boost and forgetting to connect the recirc valves?
Hi Jeff, I had fitted vacuum bungs on the vacuum nipples when i got her together, but forgot to run the vacuum pipes from the manifold to the recirc valves...... I read that no recirculation stalls the turbos and can destroy them quickly? as well as dumping to atmosphere causes huge MAF over fuelling problems on a car by car basis? Some run okay and others just won't run at all like this.... I am going to run the vacuum pipes first of all and then check for boost leaks........... I am also going to check the timing and air regulator and IACV pipes, etc.......

Stalling problem, low boost and forgetting to connect the recirc valves?
Hi guy's and girls....... I have been having a few issues with stalling when coming off the gas and slowing for a junction or roundabout...... rev's drop too low and she stalls..... Being an auto this can be a bit dicey with getting into neutral, starting her and having no power steering whilst doing it....... lol Upon investigation today on the good old 't-internet'....... I learned that I have been........ erm......... well.......... stooooooopid by all accounts...... After reading a piece about not fitting dump valves or BOV's that vent to atmosphere..... I realised that I fitted my recirc valves....... but forgot to connect the vacuum pipes to them..... Could this be what is causing my stalling??....... could the turbo's be stalling? Could this also cause the lack of boost?...... currently cannot get past 7 psi with the Profec B II.........??? Or is it more likely to be a huge boost leak somewhere???? Any help appreciated as running out of spanner time before next sunday.......... I currently can't even get up due to bad chest infection and even worse asthma............ I also gave up smoking for good 4-5 days ago as this has scared me that much, I don't want to be like this permanently.................
