99' 9-3s
A while back I installed a TD-04 15G and the car pulled great for a day or two, even hit fuel cut off in third,(a problem that needs to be fixed after this one) and then in stopped pulling hard, if pulling at all. The gauge still reads and boosts into the red however that does not translate into and feel in the car. I hooked a compressor up to the intake and blew about 15psi through it and found massive vacuum leaks from the trottle body area. I plan on replacing the two intake gaskets, valve cover gasket and retroque the head bolts(to see if that fixes the oil issues). I was wondering if anyone else experiecenced this, knew anywhere else there could be such a leak as one can hear the it from the trottle body area when the car is running now. Also, if it is from the hoses, where does one find them? I looked on thesaabsite and eeuroparts and niether had anything about throttle body or its hoses. Is there a diagram that anyone has found that outlines which each hose is so that I may use is a map per say.
Thanks
