Default Forge Splitter does not close properly.

Hey everyone. Guys I have a problem and I am on vacation.I drove my car 200 kilometers and I couldnt hear my forge splitter blow....anyway I came to the camping that we are supposed to camp (**** me right?)... and I found sometime and I took the splitter off....I noticed that it doesnt completely close the valve... Any quick solution??? I tried put some oil on it to help it work properly but no results....

Any quick solutions?? and what should I do when I get back to my garage? Open it and put some grease??? I dont want to take it out every 10 days to do that..lol

Thanks!

How do you know it's not closing properly? Do you have a boost gauge? Does the car feel down on power?

The car feels down.... I took out the forge splitter...I push it with my finger...and it doesnt close all the way down! So I came to the conclusion that I am losing pressure....and that my splitter has something stuck or something.... after 3-4 times of pushing the DV piston..it started closing....and it closed all the way...but then it stopped working again...grrr (CC4A can I add you on my FB?)
