TT88 · 05-25-2009, 04:45 AM

Hi people,

My sc12 has stopped boosting. And i can not work out why and it is driving me crazy. Here is how far i have gotten,

*I don't think the belts are slipping. They are not squeaking, but did have a little bit of oil on them, but it has gone now. SC still spining

*I have removed the ABV and taken it to pieces and put it back together. Nothing seems to be the problem.

Has a boost gauge-its not moving....
Has SC no/off switch, when on you can hear it spin and tiny tiny bit more power is noticed. But not what it should be. (barley noticeable).

I am completely beet. I am planing on just removing the whole ABV and plugging up the holes. Anyone have any suggestions? Life without boost is like a three legged race.

the car: 1988 4agze,extractors n full exhaust system, pod filter, Microtech racing ecu, short-shift, 99,750ks.
