There's no boost but the needle should rest Or Hover shall we say at about 6 to 8mm to the left of the break in the white lines which would in dicate a nice healthy vacuume. When the engine is off the needle should rest AT the break in the lines indicating O vac or 0 pressure. OK all you technical types I know Altitude has some effect on resting points, but If it rests way out of whack in respects to these conditions, then the needle is obviously in need of resetting. I had a 900 that was like this. It "appeared" to have tremendous boost but it idled at boost too. CW
