loss of boost

[wizza73]

hi was driving my car earlier parked up everything ok
went for drive later got no boost:(
what could this be:scratch:
any suggestions??
thanks

Could be a number of things but, the first thing I'd check is that your boost hoses are all secure. Is there a loud hissing sound when you accelerate?

When you say 'no boost' do you mean you are not getting any gauge indications at all or do you still get some indication?

no restrictors in the breathers

[Trevhib]

Weird. Do we know what happened to the restrictors between parking up and coming back to the car later? :scratch:

silicone hoses, proper loose fit he noticed hose was disconected an he fitted it back on, would imagine it fell off restrictor fell out, he fitted hose job done
