hi all

asked this b4 when seatkid was unknown whereabouts, but now if hes back ,can you shed some light.

97 9ohp galaxy from looking at your vacuum pipes diagram, i have a bit different. on the early model the turbo boost solenoid is a square metal box fitted next to the egr solenoid. it seems to be piped differently to the wifes 98 110tdi that has a turbo solenoid vwey similar to the egr one. i think my piping is wrong as i dont feel any boost. the bi intercooler pipe that runs up the front of the engine , on it is a take off a small vac pipe this on my engine dissapears to somewhere down past the brake servo, cant see where, the other pipes on the solenoid are, one to the air cleaner box and 2 down to the turbo. i have no movement of the actuater rod on start up and it seems very stiff, he car revs well up to the red line in all gears but just dont have any oooomph or are all the 90hp like this, have swopped maf had code reads no faults found. top speed is about 90mph downhill on the mway.

any ideas on early 90hp vacuum piping or can anyone with a similar model have a look on theres for me. to check the pipe it comes from the intercooler pipe comes out from the side in line with the battery on the right to where it goes or should it be connected to the turbo boost on all models/ thanks

Yes, the pipe from the intercooler pipe does in fact disappear down by the brake servo. Not sure, but I think it goes to the ECU, possibly the boost pressure line connected to a pressure sensor in the ECU.

 

When working correctly, the 90bhp will pull 100mph and have no trouble maintaining 90mph uphill. :D
