well a few weeks ago my bov stop working,took it to my tuner and there ended being a hole in the vaccum line,well they put a new hose on and I drove it home but now it has major compressor surge...when i got home i popped the hood and i notice they put a smaller sized hose on the bov...would this be the reason why it has compressor surge?

 

anyone have any input?

 

why havent you tryed just running a large hose to eliminate your question ?

 

line qould be getting kinked or blocked or something. go toa hardware store, spend .60 on likr 5 feet of vaccum hose and try again.

 

i dont have time to do it today,but i will go out tommorow and get a bigger diameter hose and see if that works...just seeing if anyone knew if a smaller hose would cause that issue

 

whats the pressure ratings of the hose surely they should not be caving-in

 

If its a thin hose the engines vacuum is probably making it collapse shut.

I think your right because i dont even hear the bov at all its just a loud fluttering sound

 

Not to thread jack but picked up some hose from a local store and didnt notice untill I got home they gave me fuel line instead of vac lines, they do seem softer than normal vac lines. anyone use these without a problem?

call your hardware store and asking for the collapse pressure of the hose or look on the side of the hose
