Bleed Valve Setup *PICS* take a look at the links
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi all Ive taking my car to be setup but I had some of the pipes on the wrong way will you have a look to see if my bleed valve and boost gauge is plumed up correctly please!

I have the pressure pipe from peldlum chamber going to fuel regulator. then ive blocked that pipe off on the carb.

servo to inlet manifold outlet and dump valve pipe to the one way valve thingy on the top of the manifold.

I did have the bleed valve linked into the fuel regulator to pledulm pipe and off the pipe that used to go to the ecu on the metro. but it was draining all the fuel on boost and running rich on idle.

Now I have the bleed valve in-between the pipe from the turbo to the actuator, and the pipe that normally comes off the turbo and to the eca on the metro got that going to the boos gauge?

Please look at pics thanks Chris

I think he may have gotten the message now:)

sounds like you've got it all a bit arse about face after reading it again.

you need the boost gauge to come off the inlet manifold and the dump valve trigger, if its off the servo take-off it wont see boost cos of the one way valve.

the bleed valve sounds about right though.

Ok take a look now please

bleed valve and boost gauge look ok to me, although it'd be better to take the boost reading from the inlet so you can see what is actually going into the engine after the pressure drop from the IC etc.

ok so if i t piece the boost gauge on the same pipe as thedump valve will that be ok.

where should I connect the pipe left over then the boost gauge was on. the one that normally went to the ecu where shall i connect that?

The spare pipe just block off (old ECU pipe). Running dump valve and boost gauge off the inlet is fine.

thanks all for your help

the big valve that screws into the top of the inlet?

yes the big one way valve that is there so that you dont put 10psi into your brake servo and breather pipes...

Don't quote me on this...but im sure it would work if you put the T piece between the manifold and valve just not after the valve. It should work on the same pipe as servo there's no restriction before valve?
