BOV problem?

HubbieScooby · 04-15-2004, 05:58 AM

hey guys

we've recently had a very bad rain storm here and i've notice that the BOV started not going off after that storm...i figure that since the BOV is located by the hood scoop that water may have damaged or corroded some internal parts...i was wondering if it was safe to spray a little WD40 into the BOV?? i can't take it off because it's welded onto the IC...

thanks

should be okay.

Generally they say to dis-assemble them and lube them with ATF.
