Wired in tach. I was way wrong on my idle. Shes idling around 2900-3k haha something isnt set right. Throttle cable isnt to tight. So must be somewhere else.
But after i think about it. Its a vacuum leak and i bet the booster is the vac leakLast edited by ThatOneEuroE30; 03-17-2016, 02:05 PM.

Yea i think the leak is the booster.
Intake boot were replaced with new used ones. Some kid crashed a e34 535i and he had replaced all the boots prior to wreck so when car went to the yard I happily went and pulled all them for like 10 bucks haha.Last edited by ThatOneEuroE30; 03-17-2016, 02:36 PM.

Went out to shop today and pulled the booster. It wont be here until tomorrow so I just got as far as I could.
Wonder how long all this shit as been sitting on my frame rail haha.
And of course for you corvallis.
I got my pedals on and they look great. Tomorrow I will put new booster in and clean the bay on that side since i can get to all the hard to reach places.

New booster is in and brakes are bled. Seems like i have brakes now. I will take for a test drive tomorrow. First will have to figure out why the car is stilling idling at 2700-3000 rpm. Gonna test the afm and icv and then go from there and see if i can find a vacuum leak. No pics of it installed. I was beat. And my buddy was working on his model A rat rod so i was bullshitting with him and didn't think to take pics. But you guys know what a 944 booster looks like.

Pic of booster in.
Went out to the shop today to find a pool of gasoline under my car. Patch job of the gas tank failed so I gotta redo it. I will put my replacement tank on once i have a got a 255 fuel pump and new fuel lines etc. until then I'm just gonna patch this piece of crap. Then I will be able to figure out idle. Im also not 100% the booster fixed my problem. I know my booster was out and i fixed that portion but pedal feel is almost the same except now i can actually feel the booster assisting. Once i can get it driving again I'll take for a test drive.
