If it's a turbo then you are talking about the TBV (turbo bypass valve) or hooter valve. Its a pretty easy fix and the part is cheap through sponsors. Assuming a classic 900T : There is a small plastic valve located near the turbo. This valve has 2 larger rubber hoses (one going to the throttle body, one going back to to the turbo pipes) and 1 small vacume line going from the throttle body to the top of the valve. Find the small line and suck on it, if it holds pressure it's probably good, if you can suck and suck and suck and it doesn't hold the pressure then the diaphram is bad and you need a new one. There are LOTS of posts on here about hooter valves, do a search for more info. They seem to die a lot!
