run a hose into the car and suck on it real hard when you let off the gas








hook the vac line up after the throttle plate.

First with the bov disconncted, blow at the top(bigger) nipple and make sue it holds pressure, it it does not then open it up and check the diapham.
vacume line goes to the top (the bigger nipple), leave the bottom one open.
Since your valve is adjustable, back the adjuster all the way out and see it if works (loosen the lock nut, back the adjuster out with a hex key)


I feel like i am re-sloving CDM bov issues

i doubt that`s the cause, even with BOTH spring it`s still pretty soft.
