Non running to now running, backfire issue with a previous Water/Methanol installed
I'll pass that info on. I actually put the truck up for sale due to having a medical issue that put me behind on some things. I no longer can afford to put money into working on it sadly. Another possibility that was being tossed around was a possible boost leak somewhere as it seems to remain in vac even with a load. If anyone is in or around WA state and interested in the truck or parts from it, it is where I have it listed.
LOL Over here all I have been getting are no call no shows, people trying to diag and tell me whats wrong before even seeing it to convince me to cut the price in half and people trying to trade me for **** boxes with their own issues. West coast is weird when selling rigs.

Nice. Yeah had a guy tell me the engine was toast due to the supercharger being installed and wanted me to bring the price down to $1.5k LMAO I laughed at him and didn't respond any further. The truck has some goodies on it also. I figured $3500 was reasonable.
I am interested would just have to justify the cost of going to the west coast lol
Oh it is lol private message me a number or email I can get a hold of you
The bypass valve should be easy enough to trouble shoot. First make sure there is nothing binding the lever and linkage that is preventing the valve from moving freely. Once you are sure the mechanical parts are not binding, the valve should be in its normal state of rest. Unhook the connector at the top of the valve and move the lever up and down and you should be able to tell if there is movement of air in and out of that port. On the stroke where air comes out block the port and you should feel resistance. Block it going the other way and it should hold vacuum. That will let you know if the diaphragm is good and the valve should be working properly. If you've got it plumbed correctly that is. If you have a leak that is bad enough that the truck won't boost, I suspect the plenum gasket. When mine blew it was pulling so much air internally that I could completely block off all air coming through the actual throttle body and my idle would not change where it should have shut my truck down.
I know how to test the bypass valve
... testing it now does nothing for me if I have no funds to replace it if it is faulty. Doing anything else with the truck now does nothing for me if I am selling it as is.... I am confused with your reply. ??????
