I was driving home and wasnt getting on it much and all of a sudden my car started running like crap and back fireing left and right. so i pulled over. i looked and there was a little smoke of some sort coming out of engine bay. i limped it home it wouldnt build any boost my guage read 0 psi. and if i didnt feather the gas pedal it would stall. im so confused it was running fine a few hours before. the car has some mild mods done to it. please help.
Ya after taking a closer look i found that mitsu. didnt tighten my BOV to the intercooler pipe. so when i drove it came off causing my problems. This is good news. Thanks for the help
This sort of thing always scares people and makes them think it's a blown engine, but most of the time it's just an IC pipe that busted loose. The symptoms are extreme, but the problem is simplistic. I'm glad that's all was this time...
Good deal. Ive noticed with the weather changes that some people are having problems with pipes popping off. You might want to consider changing over to T-bolts if you already havent.
