Fixed a problem today, yay!!! 1 down 29844935 to go!

So after I got done doing my injector plugs, I decided to go take it for a spin...Whoa no power brakes!! Also the car wasnt spooling any, no boost So today, after the car sat for a few weeks, I decide to go do a visual, and sure enough the line for the brakes was off the intake...Now my question, could this also have anything to do with me not having boost? I.E., losing the extra air+some? Im in the process of trading this car for an N/A because im tired of all the small things I cant figure out, that and I gotta change the coolant o-rings soon...But if I can get the car to boost, then I will probably keep it...so, save a turbo owner!! Thanks

I'm still learning with my TII. But I think if the brake booster hose has come loose you can lose pressure. Mine came off and my car still would boost just not like it did when i bought it and it idled like crap. I put that back on along with new rubber vacuum hoses. I haven't had a problem since. Its hard to say it was just that, because i changed all my vacuum lines. Don't sell the turbo no matter how bad it gets. I went from a 90 GXL to a 87 TII and even though it has its nurmerous problems in the end it will be well worth it. You'll have a extremely fast car thats lots of fun. My 90 was great but it would never be what the TII is.

I went from a prestine problem free 88 vert with a rebuilt engine to a 87 TII in need of serious help all around, and haven't regreted it one bit. You will regret getting rid of a TII, so don't do it. Unless you are going to give it to me.
