@MoparFanatic21 I sent you a message. If you have offerup you can hit me up through the messaging system there. Makes it easier for me to keep tabs.

You say the truck is not boosting even under load and in your OfferUp ad, you say the valve might be bad. Since that valve does determine if the boost from the supercharger actually makes it to the intake, it would be a good thing to know if it is actually working or not. Checking it out would not cost you anything and it would be good information to be able to pass on to whoever is interested in buying the truck. If the valve doesn't need to be replaced the new owner can start his search elsewhere, such as the plenum, if the valve is bad then the new owner will be aware of that from the get go. You made no mention of checking the valve and your earlier post said you were still learning so I was simply trying to help you with some information. I don't understand what is confusing about that, but my bad, it won't happen again.

I am just going to pass the info on. The valve is tucked behind the supercharger meaning I'd have to pull crap just to get to it. My health issue keeps me from standing for long periods hence the reason I am selling it.

Not finding a buyer who is actually serious is getting kind of crazy. LOL
