Just a few words of thanks to Nobby(Chris)for helping me last Thursday to fit an uprated rear ARB and to fix my long standing boost problem/leakage.
The boost turned out to be something very obvious and simple, quite embarrassing for me really. I just glad it's sorted now. Need to make an effort to drive the coop a bit more now. Something I'm sure a lot of us are guilty of.
Anyway, enough jibber jabbering, thanks again Chris.

It was the plastic pipe, the one next to the rocker cover. The metal sleeve inside had moved inward. As the jubilee clip was tightened up the plastic pipe, without the sleeve reinforcement, crumpled in slightly resulting in the boost leak.
