where is my boost leak?

[Alex Bland]

Alright so i found one BIG boost leak (couldnt hold air) at the j pipe, fixed that.. i see one under on eof my injectors, and one at the tb.. now theres is one more big leak i cant find.. It sounds like its at the exhaust side cam and ive sprayed soapy water over everything these and i just dont see it. is there something there that commonly leaks?

[Alex Bland]

Get a new pcv valve, or ring job.

pcv valve? thats like above the injector im talking about i had to take off the top timing belt cover and its right behind the nut holding the cam gear on

That is an odd spot. Do you have emissions lines running in that area?

not right behind my cam gear =p its like inbetween the back of the gear and on the engine

The air is leaking into the top end and finding the path of least resistance. This may be your cam seal. The valve cover breather should releave this pressure.The pcv is where it should not be.
