Default Can i borrow someones dumpvalve for 5 mins
have a problem and think its linked to my dumpvalve, when lifting off the throttle the engine contiues on, without "dumping".

Would like to test it with anothe to confirm this is the problem before buying another

Get yourself down to Essex Subaru Breakers, I'm sure they'll have one you can borrow, and may even be able to solve the problem you have too?

Cookie,

I had this a couple of years back, have you got a Forge VTA?? I took mine apart and the main spring had broken!! It's easy to take apart, just a few small allen key bolts.
I contacted Forge direct and they sent me 2 free springs and some new oil.

Has worked fine ever since!!
