87 daytona shelbyZ turbo guage hookup, where?

When I was replacing my lower I/C hose somehow I knocked off my turbo guage wire, and I can't seem to find it or where it goes. part of the reason may be because I don't know what it looks like. can anybody help me out as far as what it looks like, where it goes, etc.

no, it doesn't move anymore

What do you mean by boost guage wire? Is your boost guage not working anymore, like the needle doesnt move?

Sounds like you bumped the vacume line that opperates the boost guage. it's over by the power steering pump. You might need a flashlight to see it. But it will be sticking straight out of the firewall.

ok, so it looks like a vacume line, firewall, power steering pump...****, I can't even find my power steering fluid resevoir. and I need to, sounds like I need to add some, it whines a bit when I takeoff on a hard turn (like, if I do a u turn).

that tells me more of what to look for, thanks..

oh, and if you know where the power steering fluid resevoir/fill is, please let me know.

haha. your power steering resivour is directely to the right of your radiator. It's that clear tank. And just because it says coolent only, doesnt meen only coolent.

thats my radiator resevoir...are you telling me my power steering runs off of antifreeze? (i don't think thats right)

The reservoir is mounted right on top of the pump.

You're welcome.

looking under the hood, it's in the back left section of the bay. look just to the left and down a smidge from your intake manifold

but the boost guage line will be coming out of a grommet on the firewall almost behind the pass. side strut tower

ok, I'll have to wait till night because its really ****in hot out right now.

now...I am hoping theres a fill port somewhere around the power steering pump.

I want a big PHAT boost guage and mount it on my roof..facing backwards and all lit up!

sounds like you could have knocked off any vacuume line if you aren't getting anything on the guage. if you were messing around the I/C hoses the check all lines in that area. as for your power steering res. look for the inner most belt on your pulleys and follow it that will be your p/s pump. the res. should be part of the same unit. I have a '92 Daytona and it is still the same as an '84 model they only put remote res's on the v6 models cause of the lack of accesability in that small of an engine compartment. hope the info helps
