    Ok, Its my turn to ask a dumb question:)

    I ordered a cheapo ebay boost gauge for my snowmobile, I just finished mounting it and figured I would blow in the hose to see if it works. The most I can get by blowing is around 2lbs, that seems kinda low. Does anyone have one sitting around that can let me know if mine may be plugged up. Or am I just no good at blowing :)

    It's OK Rich, they have classes that can teach you to blow better.

    Seriously though, I don't think blowing into the tube will render much on the gauge.

    Too many more and it'll go to OT. However.... No, rich, if you can get more than 5 PSI I'll PM you my cell. ;)

    On a serious note that is about correct a set of human lungs should only push 1-2 psi, as for vacuum you should be able to pull 15-20 in.Hg.

    that is sooo funny haha lol. but yea get an air compressor and plug her in that way. its not hard to hook up a boost guage so you probablyh did it right. as long as you ran the plastic T to one of the intake breather hoses you should be hooked up properly

    If she's just blowing on it something is awry.

    More appropriately labeled a vacuum gauge.
