Default Lubed my Forge DV and now boost spikes low and doesn't hold?

Used to boost about 1.4Bar and it would slowly go down... after lubing my DV I am spiking about 1Bar and the boost quickly drops... what gives?

I have a Forge w/ the green spring I think...

Check your clamps.

Requires very little lube. Take it back apart and put it together carefully.
