BTW, My hair has long since fallen out, he is much younger than I but he is rapidly losing his hair over this project.

I really just want to get the car back. I can take it to my son’s repair shop and park it in a corner. It’s a 60 mile drive each way but if I spent all day there I could do that.

I want to run my EEHACK and compare scans.
I’m not sure if the fuel map can be edited enough to just over ride this thing or not. It may not even be the way to go in the first place. There is a hoist so I could get under the car as required.


It seems to me that it would take a substantial air leak to create this problem. The mech. Has inspected the exhaust manifolds and pipes. My diesel truck had a crack in the exhaust manifold about 4 inches long and big enough to put .035. Welding wire in it. You would think it would have affected the turbo boost a little but I didn’t even notice any loss of boost.

After the intak gasket change on the Buick there was little difference in the problem. The gaskets looked fine to me.
