Hey guys, after my water pump started leaking i went and bought a new pump and thought id put it in myself, as it didn't look that hard to do. I stripped everything to the crankshaft pulley, took all the belts off without touching the cams so the timing wasn't going to be touched. Everything was fine, replaced the water pump without problems and put everything back the way i took it off.
So when i started the car, it seemed to be fine, idled well and everything was normal, until i took it out for a drive...it felt so sluggish in every gear, its as if the power was stripped off me! It sounded fine though, no knocking or pinging, just had no power.
I run a safcII and my usual readings with knk sensor is 30 or so with full boost, when i ran it yesterday, it read over 220. Whats going on, could it be the timing? Im clueless to this situation, any ideas on what i would have done wrong. What could i do to fix it? Any suggestions would be much appreciated..
Cheers,
Steve.
