Calgary,
today was the first day i took my 1g gsx on the street, after a few months of working. It was soo strong... but all the sudden the boost went away, everything seems to be connected and the ecu doesnt have any problems, (datalogger).. i dont know what to do.. any help? i own a 1g dsm book but it doesnt tell me the cluster simbols..
i have the yellow structure thing on.. and i still dont know what i means..
any help?

oh and im having really rought idleling..
when i unplugg the sensor from the accel.. it start to idle a lilttle better. how can i set it up?
 
hey bro,

It could be alot of things however it is most likely a boost leak. Check all of your intercooler pipes and hoses. If you blow one off then that could be a problem :thumb:

happy hunting
scott
 
thanks dude
i found what i was
when i put the turbo together
i forgot the lil pin that holds the waste gate actuator and it came loose..
thats why the boost dropped..
its fine now and im loving my first dsm :):D
 
to answer the question about the little structure light on the dash. I think you are talking about the symbol that looks like a ferris wheel. The light is for the radiator.
