		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: Dave Question: I have just bought a 90 gt4. I know that the turbo spins but dont get a boost reading on the boost guage. The boost gauge goes to the - side and just sits there. checked the pipes and changed them where broken. can u help Answer: Hello Dave - Possible broken turbo shaft? Major air leak unlikely as these use a mass air meter and you wouldn't get away with it at idle.

Thanks again for the reply on the clutch problem, instead of replacing the clutch I am thinking on replacing the clutch cable first do you think that this could be a good first step? Thanks John.... Answer: I doubt it would help to be honest! It's an adjustment issue...
		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: Mikaler Cutts Question: Saxo 1.4 I've asked for help before about erratic idle and cutting out. Always assumed that they were linked as started happening around same time. Had stepper motor changed which has cured idle but still problems with it cutting out - tends to happen more when fuel is low. Can be when moving sometimes when going quite fast on motorway etc!)or when just idling - sometimes it\'s fine other times it happens all the time. Someone has suggested replacement fuel filter. Seems a bit too easy - what do you think? Problems seem to have started after I almost ran out of fuel so wonder if managed to drag some sediment etc from bottom of tank? Could some sediment etc have got into fuel lines (or does filter stop this) and if so is there a cure that does not involve completely stripping the engine down? Thanks for you help - getting really frustrated with the car now. Answer: Hi... Big sympathy here.. these suffer badly from obscure cutting out faults, to the point where we just aren't going there any more. It simply isn't worth the trouble for systems that are so badly designed to start with. If Citroen can't fix them what are we supposed to do?
		Subject: Enging Tuner || New Question Sender's Name: Adelle Cross Question: Hi Alan, I have a Lexus Altezza (Toyota Altezza) import from Japan. The engine is a Dual VVTI 210bhp. I had a full stainless steel exhaust fitted about 6 months ago now and since then the car has lost a lot of power. Two boosts come in when the car is at about 2500 revs then again at 5000 revs, instead of gaining power at these points, the car aplutters and hold back. Do you think that this could be because i never had the car tuned after fitting the zorst? What would you suggest to get it running right? A good tune or a diagnosis test? Answer: Hi.. You'd need a roller session and diagnostics. There is nothing that can be adjusted anyway. Check that the oxygen sensor was properly replaced.
