 Target mounted in EVAP2. Pump down started

Pressure goes up. Checked with Ferran and he says that the valve IEVAP2:RV1 automatically closes sometimes. WEIRD, to be chacked.

IGP2 bottoms at 0.2T, and doesn't increase recover if I close RV1 while it shouldn't (as shown before). --> Vented to restart from scratch

Pumped down again, vacuum went down to 0.16 and then started raising until ~0.18. This time the valve was open indeed! opening and closing the valve had no effect on the vacuum as if the  booster pump was not effective

Tried a THIRD time, this time effectively, to turn the turbo ON. I managed to, but the turbo makes weird spinning sounds every ~30 sec. Moreover, its pumping down plot seems quite weird  - see spike UP while pumping. Could it be related to a dysfunction of the backing pump?
