Boost gauge needle bouncing - Leedunn86 - 22-05-2013
Ive recently fitted a boost gauge, it bounces on idle is this normal and if it is can i do anything to stop it. Can hear the needle vibrating its fine when the cars accelerating .

put a restrictor in the gauge pipe line it will stop it bouncing

fix is to put a cigarette filter in the pipe.

Yep roll-up ciggi filters work a treat!
RE: Boost gauge needle bouncing - Midnightclub - 22-05-2013
Yup, extra slim filter is perfect

Yep, plus their easier to roll with and make your baccy last longer!
Wait, that's not the point...

Cheers for the idea guys will give it a go tomorrow will find some one in work who smokes rollup's to get a filter from and see if it cures it

Smug bastard!
RE: Boost gauge needle bouncing - 1616six - 23-05-2013
You could stick an inline fuel filter.. thats what I've always used
RE: Boost gauge needle bouncing - Dum-Dum - 23-05-2013
I've always found that restrictors cause the needle to move slower and read too low so i just put up with the needle bounce, it never spends alot of time at idle anyway.

Bleurgh, i can't stand the bull ones with the paper round the filter. Swan extra slim ftmfw.
Might start a for sale thread, or stick them on eBay individually for £1 each inc. P&P

It's only the slim ones that have the paper round it, extra slims don't. Those slim bull brand ones are shite, they always crush while you're rolling. Extra slim all the way, baccy goes further too!
