Default paging Lucas (GFB Hybrid BOV)

I just got the Hybrid vavle today and installed it. It seems like the spring rate is too stiff because the air won't blow off unless it's under HIGH pressure and even then it's a small pssshh.

I had one installed before and didn't have any roblems with it but it just seems this one is giving me a hard time.

If you could tell me how to adjust the spring that'd be a lot of help. Thanks.

Default GFB are good..

I have been working with GFB on a revised spring.
I have just sorted it out and GFB will soon have springs in stock.
I was told 1 -2 weeks before they have new spring available.

Default so what can I do with the valve that I already have?

I previously had the exact same valve in my car and it worked with no problems. It seems that the spring in this particular one is just too stiff.
