never Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 My new weber didn't have a spot for the pcv valve and I would have to make one up on the manifold. My question is; whats the service interval for oil changes without the pcv valve? If its really low I will get the manifold sorted to take the valve, if its not so bad I just won't worry about it.

Taz_Rx Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 You mean the one off the tappet cover? Can you t-piece it into the brake boost line? Quote
never Posted September 18, 2008 Author Report Posted September 18, 2008 You mean the one off the tappet cover? Can you t-piece it into the brake boost line? Yeah off the tappet cover. It used to go into the standard carby but with the weber there is no spot for it and i was told it should go into the inlet manifold Quote
Falken_KE30 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 is the one at the back of the cover, and it goes into the plate between the manifold and stock carby? If so id try what TAZ said... maybe T piece it... or take the weber adapter plate and get a bit of pipe welded to the side of that like the stock carby one Quote
Palmy Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 i jus ran my pcv to the inlet manifold, the side at front of engine. simple, easy, cheap and fast! lol Quote
the Db king Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 mine now goes to a oil catch can then back to the air filter on my webber Quote
Falken_KE30 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 don't forget there is 2 on the tappet cover... one at the rear... and one around the middle.. I'm pretty sure the one in the middle goes to airfilter under the assembly. The one at the rear goes to the pipe coming out of the plate between manifold and stock carby.. I'm sure... not 100%...

Taz_Rx Posted September 19, 2008 Report Posted September 19, 2008 I'm sure... not 100%... but you're 100% correct! :y: Quote

The one that goes from the air filter housing to the rocker cover is the oil breather hose, thats where the air gets sucked in to circulate throug the block/head. The vapour then goes through the PCV valve into the carby (vacuum in the manifold/venturi opens the valve and sucks the vapour in) Quote

Doing some work on the car this week as I have some time off between starting new job. Thanks for the replies, will give you an update later in the week Quote
