Check your Base Boost..

Just did one and in the 3 years since being set to 6psi by my trusty saab mech the thing was down to 4 psi base boost.. A bit surprising !
Purely due to aging of the actuator spring.
Actuator is still shiny cad plated, with it's ID sticker still on and the car has 100k.
Appearances can be deceiving and complacency/sloth has genuine cost.
Now.. carefully reset... the car is back to being a Rocket. V nice :-)
Annual Base boost testing is now a maintenance schedule item for My car.
Just my 2 cents Kids.
