Find the Turbo Bypass Valve which is in the turbo plumbing. It has two approximately one inch hoses and a single vacuum line connecting to the center of the valve. It should be on the lower right had side of the engine as you face the hood of your 9000. Remove the vacuum line where it attaches to the intake manifold. Clean it off and suck on the line. It should hold vacuum. If it doesn't, that's your problem. It's about a $35 part. Easy to swap. Duane
