PCV Valve for 1976 Rabbit
The original crankcase ventilation for the Rabbits used a restrictor in the
hose from the camcover to the carburetor intake. As a later "upgrade", a PCV valve was retrofitted into the ventilation line (this is all detailed in the Bentley manual). I have one of the PCV valves on my 1976 Rabbit, but it has a leak that drips oil all over my engine. So I want to replace it. Unfortunately, since this wasn't a stock part, none of the autopart stores have any idea what I'm talking about. I've tried looking for a "generic" PCV valve, or one from another vehicle that would work, but everything I have seen seems to be designed to plug right into the valve cover. I need a PCV valve that has a hose connector on each end. Any recommendations? Thanks, Anthony |

Just run a hose to the atmosphere, If there is oil spraying out then just
use an empty 1 gal milk jug as an oil recovery tank , or you may have excessive blow by to begin with. "Papa" > wrote in message ink.net... > Try the VWvortex forums. > |
