    Boosting off the gauge..

    I have recently got my Raider running again for the first time in 4 years.. Shes got new Battery, actuator, plugs, rotar cap, silicon hoses and a second hand carb from Mike @ GT Turbo Spares. Ive removed the anti perc fan, overboost senser, the in-car boost adjuster it had, and have done the cup mod, and fitted a oil breather pot..

    The Prob is i have noticed that it it boosting way too much ( The boost needle goes all the way round as far as it can go!

    I dont remember it being like this before.. What have i moved? and how do i turn it back down?


    Cheers,
    John

    Adjust the actuator arm. Best check what it's set to fuel though, have you an AFR gauge?

    Check the actuator hoses are on correctly and the preload on the actuator
