I bought my corsa ages ago and ive heard bad things about the fse power boost valve so I want to take it off as it apparently overfuels and my petrol consumption is a bit high for a 1.4...

Has anybody on here put one on before? as I dont know how to take it off

help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks a lot,
Greg

The one that i fitted, (not to my own car) had 1 inlet and one outlet, it went into the return line so there for when you closed it off it slowed down the flow of fuel back to the tank therefore raising the fuel pressure, so all you have to do is slacken the thing right off and it'll be the same as taking it off or u can take off and just join the pipes back together.

For example... You would pull both pipes out (shown below as left+ the 1 at the bottom.

+ connect them back up?

What about the breather pipe at the very top? Mines a blue pipe... Where you relocate that?

i tried connecting the lines back up but didnt know where the blue breather pipe went. ive also heard where the breather pipe goes into on the engine is normally connected by a blank but i dont know.....

anyways it didnt start up but i still had the other valve on that came with the pbv so i may need the original one.

we'll find a way lads lol
