Boost loss???
I notices the other day i wasnt makin as much boost as i usually do, normally full boost is at 1.3 bar i was only gettin 0.7 bar.
On closer inspection it appeared my dump valve was stuck open so i managed to loosen it and spray some wd40 on it an its now fine, however im still only gettin 0.7 bar?? any ideas why???

I have removed the dump valve and it feels like a new car. I think the spring in the Baileys wear out after a while and it looses its ability to keep itself closed etc... I could be wrong but thats what i think anyway.
