daddydonuts Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I got an 83 turbo ZX that loses power @ 4lbs of boost, runs good without getting into the pedal. What are some areas of the turbo system I can check based off of similar problems that others have experienced? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daddydonuts Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 I do realize this is limited information to diagnose my troubles, just looking for a few places to start. Stock L28ET also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loy Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I'd check fuel pressure as you're boosting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluDestiny Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 You could also be a little more descriptive, like is it a certain rpm that it's dying or just full throttle vs half throttle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Check the troubleshooting table in the FSM for 'low power output'... It's right above a 'troubleshooting' for "Excessive Power Output". I see one problem there that needs to be fixed, personally... not two! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
