Unhappy vaccuum testing

I am using a hand held vaccuum pump "mightyvac", when I attached it to the BOV it doesn't hold a vaccuum, just sucks air. According to this site that means its bad ?

If I try to pull a vaccuum on any of the components that have a vaccuum line attached it should hold a vaccuum if its ok, right ? When I say component I mean things like the fuel regulator, fuel damper, etc.

I guess its too late for the BOV group buy, anyone have a good valve they want to sell ?

see ya

Correct your BOV should hold vacuum. A Component that doesn't hold vacuum must leak vacuum, and is therefore faulty.

That's right man. As your name implies, RIP IT, and good time to buy an aftermarket one.
