need a lil bov help
 

So today was the conclusion of our boosted delsol project . The only problem were having is the ------- bov wont open its a turboxs type-s. Origonaly we had tapped the fpr for the boost guage and bov vacume but it was not opening so then i put the vacume to the nipple for the pcv and this bitch still wont open and i dont know how to ajust the bitch any now how or sugestions on getting this bitch open would be great wd40 didnt do it and i dont see if these can be ajusted

Pickup some hand vacuum/pressure pump kit. You can use this to measure/adjust your bov. You can use this as an vacuum gauge to check how much vacuum your engine is generating. Most engine should have 18~25Hg. Hope this helps.

The vacume is at 20-21 at idle

The Turbo XS units have a spring and washer type setup, meaning the spring is the base pressure and if you want to add to the spring pressure you simply unscrew the top and add the washers as spacers. Grab it with a pair of channel locks. ;D

I Just found that out the bov doesnt have any washers in it and it still doesnt oen i dont know what to do i was thinking mabey cut the spring

Re: need a lil bov help
 

i had a bitch of a time with the knock off turbo xs. what i ended up doing was cutting the spring prettymuch in half and got it to open all the way. then added washers till it close when reving and then opened at an idle. and did that till i got a sweet middle spot and have been rocking it ever since.

is it a used BOV? my friend had that same exact one but he had it installed on the car for a month before he actually finished the turbo kit and put it to use. so the car drove around N/A with the bov installed next to the fmic and i guess the rain or something seized it up! i used wd-40 and had to pound out the center peice and reassemble the damn thing.

it is used but nothing is seized b/c iv already takin it apart
