Default My amal may be dead!!

My escort cosworth´s have been "bypassed" with an ordenary on/off switchvalve. I now put in a collinschip, and would like my amal to work out, with what ever kind of overboost it may give. But the o-ring in it is cracked and the valve don´t seem to click at all!! When connected the turbo makes MASSIVE overboost , like the amal don´t work out, but how can I make a safe check??

Can I see anything with my FLUKE if I put the pins into the amal-plug??

Can I give the amal 12v without killing it for sure?? and hear a click??

If my amal is dead... then I might need a secondhand well working amal with "snapplug" connection, for my escort

Could a boostcontroller be a solution to??

Hope someone can help a little
