JB Weld the BOV?

[defury]

I removed my BOV to see inside the housing (the part the soft IC pipe connects to) It had a white film on it, do I need to use a jb weld when I put it back on?

You'd never need to JB Weld a BOV back together under any normal circumstances.

What BOV are you talking about?

If you are going to put anything on it make it a thin film of rtv or regular gasket sealer. I never use either on my pipes., just on radiator hoses.

I ended up using a small bit of silicone, this was on the stock 2g bov

The thin layer of RTV is all it needed. You should look into getting either a 1g BOV or another one. The 2g leaks like crazy.
