Default Whats wrong god dammit

Yesterday I was clean little hoses, amal valve-turbo, amal valve-wastegate, engine-ic, turbo-air filter.

and today car wpnt start, and I turn on engine after 5 mins, then rpms wont stay at normal, thet go down and engine turns off.

and engine is to hot I think after few km.


HELP please

P.S. Is this correct : amal valve lower hose----goes to wastegate
amal valve upper hose----goes to turbo

batrst: i was have air leak. my hose which goes from air box to turbo was not "sticked" properly, air leak was in right part of hose (closer to air box).
now rpms is ok.

davidnormanuk: thanks abput picture, but my amal valve is not wired like this. what will happen if hose which must go to actuator, go in turbo??

batrst: i put hoses how you say and how car goes like crazy!!

thank you mate!


p.s. what if i remove amal valve? i will have 0.5 all the time? but tis is no good for turbo? will car go better if no amal?
and my exhaust mainfold is broken on few places, is possible that turbo spin about 0.4 because of this? My spark plug cables are hooot and they are under exh mainfold , maybe they are hot because off exh mainf leak?
