BOV leaking air. . . .

Everyone-

I bought a GFB hybrid BOV almost 2 years ago and now air is leaking out of the horn, I wanted to see if this is a normal occurance with GFB or I am a rare experience. I have sent word back to the vendor that sold it to me and I will hopefully hear good news back on getting a new BOV. Cheers

Sigma Pi-

I was thinking about it, are there any directions on doing so ? I know all the screws on the top and watch for the springs but what else is there ?

I would try putting some WD-40 and see if the motion gets smoother.

Everyone else-
Bill from MastroWRX.com just told me to dissasemble and stretch the spring of the blow off valve out. I just thought I would let you know how its going.
