hi all,

I'm pressure testing the boost circuit on my Gtt and as soon as it comes to 14-15 psi it leaks from the accelerator pump like a good one.

I know it will always leak from there but this is just too much, it empties the whole 15 psi in about 10 seconds.

btw the seal is intact.

anyone?

do you have the original pipework in place ? the thin black pipe that pushes onto the accel pump will leak boost, this is normal. block it off and test again. If you like, leave it blocked off.

do I need to block the inlet tube that is on the accelerator pump, or can I leave it open?
