Re: Boost/vacuum numbers...
Hi Gang,
I tried the following on the way home last night in my '87 5KCSQ and
got the same 0.1 bar reading; my car seems to be running just fine(knock on
German wood) so maybe it's just a difference in the way the computers sense
vacumn between the the 5KCSQ 10V's and the 200Q 20V's. Just my thoughts on the
subject...
