Bov Siezed I Think?

[StOjA]

Lastnight my car was fine .. drove it like i do every other day ... today my BOV doesnt go off and now i can hear that flutter sound comming from my pod i think is due to the turbo spining backwards....

im assuming this is a bad think for my car.... would anyone knw how the BOV could sieze up.... maybe carborn buildup ... im not to car smart.

thanks for you replies

this sounds like a vacuum leak. check the line that gos to the bov. If you know where to fiend your bov, check the entire length of the rubber hose going to it for leaks , or this can be that the spring inside is completly worn out and that the vavle is stuck in the closed position. anyone who thinks that the problem is somthing else feel free to correct me

faid said it all i think but if your bov is adjustable maybe sum1 played with it

it is adjustable butnoones touched it ... ill check the vacume lines for leakes ... my car does idle a littlle different i think you might be right... thanks for the tip....

something i noticed though .... witht he BOV bloked the revs drop slower between gear changes making less lag ... i think im just going to put the stock one back on there ... im getting sick of the hairstyle noises. pointless.

anyways thanks guys appreciate it
