Title: Hissing blow off valves!
Post by: Rotary Rex7 on August 19, 2004, 07:01:31 PM
Hello peeps

Just a quick question.

I have a 92 RX7 and it\'s hissing like a snake on speed!
After a look round under the bonnet we traced the sound to the standard blow off valve.
It hisses until i put my foot down a bit and then blows off in the normal way but if i drive it slow then it hisses all the time.

has any one else had this problem? or is it a normal thing with the FD?

many thanks
Rotary Rex7

think of the times thatand the waste open, probably needs new diaphram or spring, not sure how they operate.
