SPRING REPLACEMENT
The Race Port has a variety of springs to suit different vacuum levels. Different tuning levels produce different levels of idle vacuum.
The Race Port is fitted with a standard spring which will remain closed until the engine produces more than 17 in/Hg. Using this spring
on an engine which produces less vacuum will reduce the response of the Race Port. Turbosmart has a range of springs to suit different
vacuum levels to ensure high levels response from the Race Port. Please visit our website –

for further details.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
The following points should be checked if you find that your engine is dipping below normal idle, stalling or if the Race Port is functioning
poorly. Please note, the following checks will cure 99% of problems experienced with a Race Port.
•
Check the vacuum hose for splits, cracks, loose connection, kinking or any obstruction – old or fatigued hose may collapse under
vacuum causing an obstruction
•
With the engine running remove the vacuum / pressure hose from the nipple in the cap of the Race Port, there should a loud
hissing sound. The engine should idle poorly, double check by covering the end of the hose with your finger – otherwise the hose
is blocked
•
Ensure that the vacuum / pressure source is not shared and that the vacuum source is directly from the inlet manifold
•
Check the seal between the adapter and the Race Port – ensure that there is no gap between the Race Port base and the weld
flange
•
Check the join between the adapter and the cross over pipe for leaking
•
Ensure that the right spring is installed in the Race Port for your engine’s vacuum level
