| Not Ranked : 0 score mines flutters if i stay under vacuum for week or so only because the plastic tubing gets squished together. Try checking your lines for any kinks because the heat messes mine up. I dont have mechanical tho. And i also have a little filter installed on mine that came with the prosport premium, its to keep dust or anything out of the reciever for the psi

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score exactly, its like a fuel line filter but its the one skeeter pictured. basically it helps keep pulse waves down, which creates that flutter in gauges. thats not it's main purpose obviously, but it helps. Last edited by bova; 04-01-2009 at 06:41 AM. |
