HELP! Boost but no power
 
Ok my 89T2 has been running great but today when I was crusing down the highway and I downshifted to 4th and my boost gauge went up to around 14 psi and I didnt accelerate hardly at all. I am thinking that maybe my plugs are fouled out. I havent changed them in maybe 3k.
If anyone has any ideas I would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I recently found my oil metering pump connector was loose. It doesnt seem to want to lock into place. Has anyone ever experienced this problem? Any ideas as to how to make it stay on?

Thanks
Josh

How about a slipping clutch?

Well I would say that but the clutch is only maybe 10k into its life. It is the stock FD clutch. I really hope that isnt the problem.
I took it out for a spin and it idled like crap, it was really low. So I am hoping that it is the plugs.
They have been getting lots of fuel thrown there way due to this cold Michigan weather! I had to bump the AFC up some due to the much liked added boost!
