There is no reason to touch that.
If it ohms out and it clicks, install it. There are no other specs for a BAC valve.

I always thought it looked more like a worm gear, but since there's no reason to do anything to it except spray it w/ cleaner every once in a while, I never got around to finding out

it won't move back much. I have cut a BAC valve open and observed its operation when energized.

thanks

so is it safe to spray some carb cleaner on the "wormgear/plunger" and down the air hose fitting on the other side?
