Re: Major boost cut at higher revs

Update

Well I got the multimeter out and the values are

HT LEAD

1 10.27
2 8.32
3 7.95
4 5.30

Anything under 25 is good apparently so it seems HT leads are out.
I have on order new vacuum hoses...we shall see :-(

Re: Major boost cut at higher revs

So I'm thinking maybe

Ignition timing
Vacuum leak (I might not be able to visually see a crack)
HT leads
Coil/ igniter?
