The CCV is not a problem IMHO, but clean boots, etc at installation ARE required to keep them from slipping off. Better boots and clamps will help too.

Here's what my 'boost detector' looks like:

Hmmm, never thought of that. I believe I will build one tomorrow. I got the boot back on but I think I put too much paranoid strength on the clamp and over tightened it...oops! I'm guessing that it's going to pop off again when I head home in the morning. Oh well, I guess I will be looking for a clamp tomorrow too. Thanks, for the link.

That's your fault, and you know it, and now you're trying to pass the blame off to me.

I tried to tell you guys that replies before me show up later than I post, but noooo.... we had to go on a playful jaunt of "Where's Tugly?" instead of getting busy with inventing a new world where everything works perfectly. Nobody takes me seriously.
