RE: [DML] Re: Turbo question

[Marc Levy <malevy_nj@xxxxxxxxx>]

If the boost gage does not go above zero (showing
boost) then you have a problem.

Could be something as simple as an exhaust leak before
the turbo, or as bad as seized turbos.

I did not know Rob was not working on these any more. 


There was a guy who left Caloway and opened up his own
shop in CT..  The previous owner of 1860 told me the
car spent some time up there (as did another owner who
saw it there).  I dont remember the name of the place,
but someone else on the list may.

Contact me directly if you need more help.
