Well, it was a vacuum leak. Seems like C hose to the compressor outlet was compromised which had the ill affect on the rest of the engine (awful idle, gas mileage affected). Replaced C hose & all was as before - smooth idle, gas mileage readout back to normal & the car's faster. BPC valve buzzes along. It's a quiet buzz. How loud should the BPC valve be when operating properly?
Also had time to modify a pair of Silverstar 9005 bulbs for the low beams. They look & work GREAT! Thanks for the tip about the mod.
And thanks again for all the input below & in the past.
