'85 300SD, low boost and weak shifting....

I was on my way back from a road trip and noticed my boost would not go above 6psi. I also noticed the trans shifting very softly.
I cleaned the banjo bolt and was following the lines when I saw this......problem fixed!

Its nice to have the occasional easy fix. Of course this probably doesn't make up for the time you spent looking at the boost pressure at 6 thinking about your turbo shelling out or the vac pump exploding.
