Re: [Peugeot-L] 1987 505 Turbo Doesn't

Two important things I learned about the N9TE(A), one the wastegate actuator and, two, the throttle potentiometer.
I believe August has covered some of the wastegate problems. I bought a car with a blown engine, and the car ran great. It had been over-boosted over a long period of time and had a blown head gasket. Three of the pistons were broken. The fourth we replaced because we didn't trust it. Engine parts are extremely hard to come by. Have it checked out. Don't get sentimental. Rebuilding this engine is quite pricey.
The throttle potentiometer is important because it sends a signal to the ECU which controls engine timing. Check the archives for the procedure, but I wouldn't waste any time or money until I was sure the engine is mechanically sound.
