how exactly do you reset it?

So I have an HKS turbo timer, and it was working fine, until my battery died. I had my car jumped and ever since it hasn't worked properly. it still turns on, and counts down, but the engine shuts off. so the problem is when I turn my car off, the engine shuts off, but the turbo timer counts...

I built a boost leak tester a while back, and we pumped it with air. It wouldnt hold any psi, but I think that might be because of a few things: We connected the tester to the accordian pipe, and not the actual turbo. The boost leak tester may have a leak. But this is when we heard...

I want to know EVERY possible cause for a lack of boost. I cannot get as much boost as I could when I got the car (it was hitting 8-9 psi). Now it gets around 4-5 psi. Mods: 3 in. dp, 2.75 in. exaust, gutted cat, and k&n air filter, lightweight flywheel. Here's what I have checked already...

hey I'm in great need of a new clutch, I want it to handle up to 400 foot pounds of torque, and would rather not spend more than 450 bucks. I'm also getting this flywheel with it: http://www.suprastore.com/fidligalflyw.html If you know of a better one (for around the same price) please...

95000 on the car, 3000 on the rebuild

yeah i tried to blow though it, no air whatsoever went through

How much will this affect the boost, if at all?

the gasket I have right now is metal, is that best?

where might I get an ISC gasket at? do I need a new one if Im just taking a look at the valve?

could a slipping clutch lead to a lack of boost?

Well I do smell gasoline at times, not too often, but when I am outside the car and it is running I smell gasoline.

I checked the turbo for shaft play, it was very minimal. The shaft moved 1/2 mm to 1 mm at most. The fins spun easily when we moved them. There was also some oil in the turbo and a pipe. Is that normal?

When I blow air into the IC pipes I can hear air leak from a certain area. It behind the alternator, near the oil cap. We plugged up all pipes going back into the accordian pipe. Where is this air leak comming from? Is this a leak or just normal air entering the engine?

The Supra has about 95,500 miles on it, the engine was rebuilt about 3000 miles ago. And yes it is the original clutch.

I have a 1990 supra turbo and have been having some problems with the boost. I normaly get more than 8 psi, now I get around 5 (at most). In first gear it wont go any higher than 0 psi. Also, when the car is not moving the turbo will not spin whatsoever. When I am at much higher speeds I can...

NVM i just figured out that pressure doesn't matter before the turbo.

I have a boost leak. Running no more than 5 psi, should be doing more than 8 psi. I built a device to pump air into the turbo (starting at the accordian hose) to find the leak. And we found it... sorta. We can hear air comming out on the other side of the engine from the turbo. It...

So this needs a hose right? is there any possible way that can cause a loss of boost?

I've been working on my car (i have a boost leak and Im still trying to find it) and I have some questions about some stuff What is this valve for?
