bov problem..

[NYCE]

well problem number one is that i cant adjust the blow off valve anymore..i have the greddy type s and the adjustment screw just keeps turning and turning loosly when i try to turn it to a stiff setting. right now its on really loose. and problem number 2 is that my friend told me that he can hear my bov making hesitating "tsst" noises like 10x in a tow as i accelerate. is that premature boost leakage? weird thing is when i accelerate my gauge reads 5.5psi which is the max im pushing..

is the BOV secured flat face and tight with the plate on the charge pipe?

what vacuum source are you using for the BOV?

[NYCE]

yeah its secured onto the charge pipe..my vac source is the intake manifold.

if the nut isn't threading properly anymore and just turning forever, sounds like the bolt's stripped. you can have the bolt re-threaded, and use a new nut that'll thread right with the new bolt.

check the nut too tho, it could be fubar and screwing on correctly anymore.

its safe to unscrew the adjusting screw fully off right? i wanna check it the threads are stripped.
