Rats... You've done it again and confused me. Perhaps the 140 is 180degrees opposed to the 107 in operation. You state above the ...bms bends, then engages the pin... when on a 107, the pin IS engaged until the bms heats up, bends away from the pin, releasing the pressure on the pin and therefore spring plate to uncover the hole allowing fluid to flow thru...(reference pic posted above ).
As I posted earlier, why not just remove the bms, seal the pin hole, and let it ride?
What a topic!
