Problem with my BOV...you tell me!!
I have a 1st gen eclipse BOV on my civic and i am not sure if it is working correctly. When im at idle the BOV is open. When i rev the engine a bit it closes but does NOT stay closed. I do not have a vaccuum leak and i believe it has been crushed. IS this the way it is supposed to be or is it a POS. I have not driven the car yet because im an still putting the kit together. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Heres a pic so you know which one im talking about,NOT my actual one but jsut as an idea.

My Greddy Type S does that and so does a couple of friends.
Under vacuum the valve opens up to release the pressure
Once you put load on the engine, the valve closes
