I cleaned the BPC valve and it was not full of gunk-very clean. However, when I carefully applied compressed air to the valve the air from the top "tube" would exit out of the electrical connection. I realize the bottom two "tubes" are always open and air would easily pass between them but I did not expect the top orifice would "bleed out" of the top of the valve. This does not seem right. There is no difference in boosy after cleaning. Any thoughts on air escaping out of the electrical connection? Oh, the local fuel is 92 octane, not 91, I will run to the neighboring town, I think the Shell station sells 93 octane and see if this helps. Thanks, Dave F.
