Can it be the BOV?

watsup guys,

so i recently changed my clutch master cylinder. after that install, i started to get problems with my idling.

Took it to a mechanic and he said its the BOV after doing a smoke test. The hose is plugged out of it right now and the car is perfectly fine except for no boost

If you guys do think it is the BOV, what type of BOV should i get?

thanks

That's when the mechanic steps out back and smokes a ciggy and then comes back in with a wild guess, charging you for the time it took him or her to smoke said ciggy, correct?

Did you check the vacuum lines? Could be loose or not plugged in?
