Help Help Help! PLEASE!
People! im lost, i bought a 2001 SAAB 95aero 2.3Turbo, I bought the car with an oil leak, the problem was fixed with a new oilcap/dipstick.
I now seem to have some boost problem, when at full acceleration the guage gose to the begining of red and stays there till around 4500rpm, my issue at the moment from what i gather is incorrect positioning of vacum lines and the dump valve. When i let go of the accelerator a hear a loud Psss/flirting sound, im pretty sure that a standard dump valve is not meant to do that? From what ive heard this car should fast, especially through 3 4 5 gear, but it just feels sluggish
Could that be the dump valve???
Please Help me out, i need to take this car for a very long drive in 2 weeks time and i dont want it to brake on me.
(hopefully it will be a cheap fix as i am only 19)
Thank you
