Seeings as it was hot and humid, I thought it might be a good day to lay on the
garage floor for a while. Started thinking on how the test my boost pressure, but I did not have enough good just close at hand. So I decided to pressure test it.

First I took of the hose from the filter box, and clamped down a stewed tomato jar. Then I unhooked the pvc hosr, and jury rigged a hose into the low pressure intake side. Sure enogh, it would hold pressure, but I kept hyperventalating blowing into the damn hose trying to find a slow leak. The air compressor sure looked inviting during one of my better dizzy spells, but comming to my senses I realized the 125 PSI was probably a little too much. So I dug around the junk a little more and jury rigged a hand bicycle pump up. This work pretty well, as I soon realized my slow leak was coming thru the oil in the engine block. I did test bost BOV valves, and they do not leak. But I have not figured just why the air was leaking into the oil. Any Ideas....

Take care
