how to test this part to see if it's bad. do it first!

The last thing I changed. Too bad I didn't start here. I started with a new gas cap, then replaced the magnet on the back of the gas tank, and finally this one. I saw the guy on the YouTube video say you can test this part by blowing through it. It should be "normally closed" so any air flowing through it means it's bad. I tried it and the amount of air coming out was almost imperceptible. I wasn't sure if it was a leak but it was quite a bit. It was so small I wasn't sure. Well, I think if even a minimal amount of air gets through, that's the bad part. You could save money, time, and hassle by replacing this part first. Now you know.
