for those of you using the coolingmist setup

on the relay, there is a 30, 85, 86, 87, and 87Q pins. the 87 AND 87Q get hooked up to the battery right? im just trying to figure out why im not reading 8psi on this new pulley....

Two ways:
One get a pressure switch that will close (provide power) when it senses water pressure, put this after the solenoid or check valve whatever the case my be.
or
Wire a light in line with the boost pressure switch.
So when you see boost, the light sees power.
The first one will tell you if the water is actually spraying the second only tells you that the system is getting power.
Unfortunately I don’t have schematic in front of me right now but hopefully you get the jist.

uhh.....you definitely didn't hook that up right.

your 87a position should be left empty.

your 87 should be hooked up to your battery or 12v power source, and your 30 should be hooked up to the pump. these two can be reversed.

your 85 should be hooked up to the boost switch (what reads the pressure) and your 86 should be a 12v switched source where you can turn on and off the system. these two can also be reversed.

if you want to put an light or led on it, put a light between your boost switch (85) and your pump (87).

well i didnt have the 87a and 87 both hooked up to the batt, i was just wondering.

following you directions, It is hooked up correctly. and I even pulled the hose that goes to the injector and liquid came out, so its working.....

now why the hell am I still reading only 6psi?

dam it looked better when i previewed it


either the belt is slipping or a leak or problem with the gauge

if the belts slipping, then wouldn't I get erratic boost readings?

depends how bad its slipping , and when its slipping


like i said its possible its a leak or issue with the gauge

a leak? on the boost lines? or somewhere else?

also, could the bypass valve have anything to do with this?
