Default Weird power loss.

So I think I have a boost leak because when I was driving around tonight I decided to boost a little bit and sometimes, not always the car will build boost a little and just drop it. I was kind of hesitant to keep testing what's up so I guess I will check the pipes tomorrow.

A/F was good tho and no knock. Hopefully I can get it on the Sonic Dyno soon.

Yea I notice that after I work on my car sometimes I get too over cautious and normal noises I forgot about are now the engine self-destructing or I just make up symptoms.

It's not a boost leak I am just running to rich so I need to wait to do anything but normal driving until I get tuned. I would hate to wash the cylinders.
