Why would a 1992 Supercharged SSEi Pontiac Bonneville not have any boost most of the time but sometimes show boost and run OK?

check ALL connections-oil connections, belts, belt tension, etc.. tighten as needed and look for anything that could possibley obsturct the intake charge. also the guage may have a bad connection where you receive boost but it doesn't shw up on the guage

How can you tell if your 93 Pontiac Bonneville is supercharged or not?
1. There will be a supercharger sitting on top of the engine...it's hard to miss because the supercharger will be the first thing you see in the middle under the hood it sits on top of the engine or 2. Check the VIN Supercharged models start with the number 1 Non-Supercharged models start with the letter L or 3. Check the emblems on the car SSEi models are always supercharged SSE models will have Supercharged emblems on the front doors (if you don't have them then its not supercharged not all SSEs are) SE models are never supercharged or lastly 4. Check the dashboard gauges Supercharged models will have a "boost" guage on the far right of the instrument cluster....that guage monitors the air pressure in the supercharger Non supercharged models will have a voltometer which measures the battery's output or if you don't have either well then its a base model with pretty much nothing so it obviously wont have one
Your brother owns a 2004 Pontiac vibe wants to know if is safe to boost your 1990 Bonneville?
Yes, to a certain degree. Actually the SSEi trim level comes stock with a supercharger.

Will an alternator from a 1990 Buick riveria 3.8 liter engine work on 1992 Pontiac Bonneville 3.8 engine?
Some parts are interchangable and some are not. Example, my 1984 Ford F-150 truck's brakes recently went out, I had to replace the vacum boost with a (I believe, not real sure though) 1986 vacum boost, same model.
Should supercharged a motor be low compression or high?
The more boost you use the lower compression you want. Higher compression with boost leads to detonation which leads to excess engine wear and damage.
What is the spark plug gap on a 4.6 mustang?
Ford specification on the non supercharged cars is .052"-.056". I set them to .050. The side electrode needs to be parallel with the flat surface of the center electrode as well. The supercharged Cobras are between .035-.039" I set them to .035", unless the boost level is higher than 14# of boost. HTH Jim
Why is the supercharger's boost gauge on your 2001 Bonneville SSE reading negative ten psi instead of 0 psi when the car is on?
Unless you are accelerating rapidly the engine should have a vaccum (negative boost). All gasoline engines have vaccum during normal operation, this is how the engine rpm is controlled. The throttle only allows a small amount of air to pass into the engine (less than what the engine would draw in naturally) pushing the gas pedal down opens the throttle more allowing more air to pass and thus less vaccum, or positive pressure (boost) on a supercharged or turbocharged engine.

How does the bypass valve work on a supercharged engine?
The bypass valve is a release which vents off pressure in a rapid de-acceleration situation. When the supercharger is producing boost and you abruptly let off the gas, closing the throttle plates, the boost has nowhere to go.
