Vacuum Lines

[@Tommysrt1]

Hey Grand National brother! love your channel concerning our Turbo Regals! Ive began to tighten my car with the PCV all lines and zip tying them. Smart, simple and effective. You should keep posting more content, there is not much '' how to videos'' on our cars. Thanks and hope to see your videos!

[@twomontess]

I know your vids are pretty old. But the knowledge you share is so valuable!! Thank you.

A video on how to check boost level would be great if thats even possible. Also interested on how you cleaned up hoses and electrical lines

[@turbobuicks1015]

You can log boost pressure on Powerlogger. I honestly didn't clean up any electrical. It's all factory except where I plugged into the tach wire. The only hoses I cleaned up were the EGR. I eliminated them when I got rid of the EGR. You can see the blockoff plate I installed. The spark plug wires are from RJC Racing. They give a very neat and tidy install and are numbered and tied together.

1st off I'm a new subscriber and love your videos👍 looks like I'll be asking you many many questions 😁

Great video...

[@turbobuicks1015]

Thanks so much.

Video on proper way to change out valve springs using shop air in the cylinder would be great.😂 thanks

[@EluderRacing]

great video was wondering why you don't have the pcv capped off? I thought if you have aftermarket breathers on the valve covers the pcv is no longer needed? I want o eliminate my egr system on my 87 there are so many lines and solenoids im not sure what I can remove and not remove do you have a diagram or a video that goes over the egr system removal start to Finnish?

[@petertowers9579]

What type of vacuum line did you use for your boost gauge

[@luisguzman2248]

My BL is at 142. I can't find any air leaks I blocked off the PCV from the hoses block on top and my BL went down to 126. What's your input on blocking the PCV valve? Oh yeah and THANK YOU for the videos you got me looking at my car to prevent future problems. 👍👍from California

[@turbobuicks1015]

Hook it back up. Check for pre turbo exhaust leaks. The drivers side header ALWAYS cracks between cylinder number 3 and 5...the two rear on the drivers side. Get it welded up. Headers where they mate up to the heads could be warped. I use header gaskets from Felpro. You could heave a turbo exhaust leak at the turbo flange. I use an RJC turbo flange gasket. You could have a leak at the crossover pipe under the car. If you're using a TT chip the fuel pressure has to be set at 43-44 line off. If the 02's on your SM are moving slower than usual then you could have a bad 02 sensor.

Turbobuicks 101 thanks for the info. I'll check those things out.

[@leecerveny4882]

@@turbobuicks1015 Would you hear the leak? or not always?

[@turbobuicks1015]

California won't allow you to block off the PCV I assume. The emission laws are strict there from what I here. Try a new PCV valve. Was the BLM's always 142 or did this just happen? You need to look for a pre turbo exhaust leak. The DS header always cracks towards the rear. The EGR could be leaking. The turbo flange could be leaking. The crossover pipe could be leaking at the flanges. I want you to join Turbobuick.com. I'm on there as well as some other guys. We'll get you sorted out.

@@turbobuicks1015 thanks for the info brother. What's your input on a 5862 turbo?

[@mikeandNikes]

When removing the EGR what do you do with the box and vacuum lines that run to toward the fire wall?

[@820performancecomptonbro4]

Have a question im building a 109 Stroker motor ta head Street strip always ran a Turbo tweak chip very happy with Eric chip questions to you see if you can help me what chip should I get for this set up

[@MrCreeper211]

Where did you get that under the hood cover

[@homuraakemi9556]

My wastegate solenoid is different. Has two barbs instead of one with a Y in the vac line. How should it be set up? Also, where's a good place to get the scanner?

[@anthonylamb6369]

Can you translate what I should do if my oil line they say is plastic is melted shit Maybe where I can find to replace with metal Tube?

[@fpswills3597]

my gn boosts up but sometimes it completely loses boost after couple seconds even if i am full throttle

[@ClockFixer]

Nobody has a pic of where the iac valve is !!??

[@benodell9675]

Hi I have a 1986 t type regal - at an idle it runs high and low, could this be caused by a vacuum leak? Any other ideas? Thank you Ben

[@turbobuicks1015]

Post your Scanmaster numbers here with engine warmed up and in neutral and I'll have a look.

[@benodell9675]

@@turbobuicks1015 I don't have a scan tool hooked up, any other ideas? Thanks, Ben

[@turbobuicks1015]

The very first thing that should be purchased for these vehicles is a scantool to properly diagnose issues. It could be a vacuum leak...but that's just a guess. Without scantool numbers it's a crapshoot.

[@benodell9675]

Ok great idea I will get one.

[@shaunfoerster9582]

At the end of your video it looks like the line going to your brakes has a crack starting near the zip tie

[@kevinanderson4876]

Hey can you tell me about changing my brake system over to vacuum ,size or year booster

[@turbobuicks1015]

All you need is the the vacuum setup from a 1987 Regal. You'll need the vacuum brake pedal as well as the pivot point is different than the Powermaster pedal.

[@kevinanderson4876]

Thanks 👍 I appreciate ya

[@daltonrincon8702]

Could you explain how to wire the scan master ?

[@turbobuicks1015]

I posted a vid awhile back on how to wire a Scanmaster. Check through my vids and you'll find it.

[@turbobuicks1015]

For me personally, it's to clean up the engine bay. The other is that the EGR can be a source of vacuum leaks.
