I have to give you credit for your resolve..lol

Reading and following the directions in a repair manual will probably save you alot of time and effort.

This is a guess but it sounds like maybe some one didn't unplug the electric valve when they did the clean air mod, the valve needs to be unplugged to stay open or the system will build pressure.

THANK YOU OMR!

I did the Clean air mod in 2007 and never unplugged that valve...until today.

BTW what would have been some other symptoms of over pressurizing the case?

i think that was my problem as well ..

the stock part that i used instead of a T tube was closed, so OMR probably is right

as always

anyways ... I fixed the damn thing! took it out for a ride in the weekend and the bitch runs!

not as good as it was running before, but it runs

for how long ... no idea

Congrats! I guess I lucked out; I used the correct t-valve and avoided damage for 5 years lol.
