Too rich fuel/air with boost controller 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be riverol on  Sun Mar 10 11:56 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Unless it is a leak that opens up only under high boost, I have checked, but I will check again. Yes, the hoses are new without any oil contamination, never mind soft spots. Short of riding under the hood while someone drives the car under full booost, I do not know where to look. Darren Dawes suggested I raise boost since I have too much fuel, but I worry whether mechanically the engine is up to 12-14 psi of boost. What do you think?
