Got Boost Leaks? WATCH THIS!!

Another frustrating tale today as a customer brought in his truck after visiting three different shops being told that he had a turbo issue, tuning issues, etc. Five minutes worth of diag with the boost leak detector is all it takes to troubleshoot your own issues!

Quit letting shops waste your time and money.

You see, I need somebody like you. I've 2.0TDCI in 2008 ford focus. It was in many shops, even official ones. It's absolutely ridiculous how inexperienced poeple are there. They are not able to think; most of the time they follow some "cookbook" from a dealer.

It would not help me saying what's wrong with my engine. But I do appreciate there are people still out there who know what they're doing.

I can relate. Lots of auto shops have gotten poor since the pandemic

I hope your client finds a trustworthy diesel mechanic. Sucks some shops do not manage their employees very well.

My close relative bottomed out my Mk7 1.8t Golf in a ditch and put a hole in the intercooler. I was unaware of it for a month. I brought it into my euro shop for a boost leak and they found the hole. Saved me about $1000 because I thought I needed a new turbocharger. Had to learn this eventually

Lucky for me I have a trustworthy euro shop close by, otherwise I would've been fooled and overfeeding my money pit

Any advice for ole 12v oil leaks. I’ve always been told they always constantly leak no matter how much you try to find the problem

[turbothis]

What if you can barely reach your turbo, let alone putting some cap over it to attach an air compressor?

[Holcomb]

Looks like the new turbo built to much boost 🤘🏽🤣

Dude. What camera are you using in this video? I love the out of focus background! Thanks. Helpful info, too!

Whats best way to exhaust leak test lbz

[Biffracing]

I like that technique, just curious, do you ever have to bar the engine over in the event a intake valve is open?

[chrismalone]

I have a 05 lly. Just put my new reservoir tank, cold air intake kit from wehrli fab. Now it’s like I can’t get over 6psi boost. The intake with filter on a stick is 4in with 3.5 in reducer to the intake to the turbo. I tighten all boots I installed was fine before I installed that. Any advice gonna do a bossy test today hopefully after work

I was at a light when it turned green i stepped on the gas pedal and wouldnt go it wasnt untill i stepped on it hard that it kicked on, now it feels like i have a lag on boost, i floor it and takes a while to boost up, any ideas?

I have you 7.3 street package on my 1996 F-350. I have a banks intercooler. On the daily driver setting, while just cruising around, my egts around around 700-800. Going up little hills, it goes up to around 1000. If I floor it, it reaches around 1200ish. On my hot street or track reaper setting. I have constantly hit 1400-1600 with 2-4 seconds of acceleration then I let off because I don’t want to melt my engine. Are those egts normal?

[caseihpopper]

I have question when I’m driving and my truck hits 100mph the boost just drops all the way I know it’s not it leak cause the way it happens it’s like once I hit it certain speed it stops
