Title: boost gauge
Post by: john656 on October 03, 2010, 15:26:30
Ive tried searching but it tells me that i cannot search on this forum...?
Anyhowwww, where is good to T into when fitting a gauge to a 300tdi? Never played with turbo'd lumps before, i have an idea but dont really want to do the trial and error on this one.

Ta

With the engine cool look between the washer bottle and the engine block.  Under the exhaust manifold you shoiuld be able to see the turbo waste gate actuator.  there should be a small bore pipe from this to the turbo outlet elob, you want to measure the pressure at this point.

If you are unsure you can also T into the pipe that goes to the fuel pump, that's dead easy to find.
