Default bov

what do i do when i have a sticky bov, i tried cleaning it and it still doesnt open right. does that mean a new bov is in the future. but i can see scratches on the brass like its rubbing against the walls.

what kind of bov is it? did you try loosening it up or putting in a less firm spring? Also make sure the grease you are using on the bov isn't too thick.

i was using wd40 and its a turbo xs rfl bov. so its a spring with washers, the more washers the hader it is to open, i tryed taking out the washer and it still sticks.
