dude... i don't understand a damn thing that you're saying.
Just explain what you'd like people to help you out with. Please leave out uncessary words such as "Like" and try to use a complete sentence.
sorry if I sound like an *** but it's very hard to help someone if you don't understand what they are saying you know?
Start from the begining and give as much information as clearly as possible so that people or I can help you. If you just give bits and pieces no one will answer your threads. This is just future advise for future posting

huh ok this is hard to explain..i start the car i put it in gear and have the clutch held in all the way in. i give it a rev just to see how the rpms go and it idles at 500 and i rev it it goes up comes back down to 500 then goes down close to dying even though the clutch is all the way in then goes back up to 500... today i was driving around and i took a turn like at 5mph and i held the clutch in and it just died while i was still rolling. so i dunno what the heck is going on haha and even when i try to start it it takes a little long sometimes... and yeah thats my problem.. i dont know how else to explain it haha. i dunno about helping me but maybe advice of what u think would be the problem would be nice..

you might have the BOV open to much. you might have to adjust the screw on the top of it some. if your BOV came with instructions it would be in your best interest to read them and follow the instructions.

you use entirely to many likes and yeahs in your sentences.
cool... let us know how it goes.
you'll have to adjust then drive...etc.
of course you wouldn't have any problems the first day since you're car hasn't
"learned" that there is something new.

sounds like he's too running rich.
i enjoyed my BOV for 2-3 weeks then sold it. out of curiosity i gave in. i'm just PROUD to say that it was NOT my 1st mod. unless i'm running a fmic w/crazy boost and engine management then i'll humble up and keep my stocker - unless someone donates their hks

Agree... I have one and I run 5 washers. It works fine. I have never had a problem with it. I am not sure why everone seems to have problem with the TXS BOV?
I would have stayed with the stock one but I was getting boost leak. (running 19.5lbs) So I upgraded to the TXS. I read the instructions on their site and it recommended 5 to 6 washers... car has run fine since the day it was installed
