AHHHH Help Blitz BOV!!!???

So i was going to change my spark plugs and realized i didnt have a deep socket to get to them so i closed the hood and decided to go get one, as im driving i realize, hey my BOV is real quiet now? The damn screw ontop of the BOV is missing??? It either fell off while i was fiddling with the valve cover or otherwise. Where can i get another one, im loosing an ishload of vaccum because of this.

Get it from Blitz. If you really want, check a parts store. That screw/bolt you see is a BOV adjustment. That is usally used when people have some idling problems.

Yes you need that hole covered but tape will not do man.

Go to a hardware store that sells metric bolts... park outside and go inside, buy a bunch of metric bolts and test...

M8 or M10 I believe. (Had a similiar problem)

thanks delio but i ordered another one from blitz and it should be here in a couple of days. Apparently it costs $2.50 which is worth it to me if i dont have to play the guessing game and strip the threads on the BOV.
