HI Curly,
Sorry to hear you are having more problems with "my" 300D. I don't
recall any turbo problems, but it sat for about a year while I figured
out what to do with it. The only way I ever checked to confirm things
were as they should be was to warm it up then do a 0-60 test looking for
a
Checked over the vacuum system. did not find any problems. Blew out
the manifold fitting and line to overboost cutout. It is a little
better, but not where it should be. I don't have a vacuum gauge here
to check actual vacuum. When driving you can tell is is getting some
boost, but not
You probably have a vacuum leak somewhere. The turbo is vacuum operated on
these rather than pressure. Low vacuum equals no boost.

If the black box (EDS) has an analog/digital fit, you have no boost. I recall

Got it aligned today. Will pick it up in the morning, and it goes
immediately into service. Running out to the alignment place, it did
not appear that the turbo was working, or at least it was lazy. I will
blow out the line to the intake manifold.
What other things should I check? OVP r
