Boost gauge reading at idle

Post by Tiger38117 »

Hello all,

Recently purchased an ‘88, my second B2K. Working on sorting it out.

What is a normal boost gauge reading at idle? I would expect it to read like any other vac gauge, but mine shows a litle lower than I would expect. I can’t remember what my old ‘87 showed.

Thanks
Scott in Memphis
