[FDAsh]

Thrown a seal maybe. Does it idle at all?

[Nik da Greek]

3000 rpm, erm, doesnt sound a whole lot? Am I missing something there, or was that a typo?

[Timmy]

3000rpm accelarting + cold night = boost spike could well have broke a tip but could also be a many number of things. Need more details really.

[g11ary]

could be a few things, check the hose is not split off come off the map sensor, small black box on fire wall passenger side just to right of manifold.

well when it standing still it it cant keepin normal idle rpm.hope its not a tip its only does 43.000 miles well look after only a weekend car ill have to look around it to day when its light was dark when i got it last nite
thanks for all repleys

Sounds like mine when I blew a tip. They do tend to go anywhere from 40k onwards sometimes before if your unlucky or running crazy boost:burnout. I hope for your sake it\'s not!!!!!! Just check all the pipes you can (easier said than done on twins).

Yes it sounds like a tip, but it also sounds like the same symptoms of when the pipe comes off the MAP sensor, so as Gary says, check that first.

[cowboy]

so if it a tip gone is that an rebuild then?

Yes ...but check the map sensor pipe it takes seconds to fix.
