    Pcv or not to pcv?

    Yeah its sure got me down. With what my brother spent on it at the shit ass shop he took it to coupled with what ive spent on it trying to get it right + time, its costing way more than the motor will ever be worth, even if it ran right. Im still holding out hope that its no more than a head...

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    I suppose it is possible that the oil pump pressure relief valve could somehow get clogged and cause oil pressure to increase but NO, mine is fine. Oil pressure has never risen over 60-65ish and thats when cold or warmed and in throttle. Otherwise idling warm its 35-40ish

    Pwr Steering Pump R&R....anyone?

    $10 kit off amazon. comes with all the o-rings. Has both style o-ring for the seal you are talking about so make sure you use the right one. Just lay them together and check the thickness.

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    I almost bought one at advanced yesterday. I know you can run em that way but I want to make sure I dont have bigger problems first. Gotta get one for the passenger head anyway since ive realized my passenger rocker cover has no venting "sealed cap" to let air into the crankcase and circulate...

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    So....My passenger rocker cover is sealed up tight. As in it has a push in oil cap and no venting to the air breather. Perhaps this is contributing to something as it has no way of pulling in air from the passenger cover like OE. Im gonna pull the cap and replace it with a breather/filter and...

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    Hey bud...how you doing. So that tap/tick we were discussing ended up being the pcv. Finally located it once it started howling. Noticed the tap went in rhythm with the howl, pulled the pcv and no tappy tappy. Makes me think you are right. Imagine the Bad cylinder ring allowing blowby in...

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    I have a homemeade catchcan left over from an old turbo build. I can use it but im thinking thats just a bandaid for whatever is causing the blowby/pressure. I dont know though, just thinking it shouldnt happen unless something is fkd up. Im gonna try running a new pcv and then give it a day and...

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    A pcv is fully open at WOT not closed at all. barley open=idle or deceleration, Mild throttle is half way open, and WOT is fully open. It only closes with backpressure" backfire" Not being contradictory for fun...just know its important info to get right. If a pcv closed at wot it wouldnt be...

    Pcv or not to pcv?

    Hell yeah guys> i am dealing with pcv issues at the moment so this is a great thread. I had a horrible howl coming from my carb i blame the pcv for,"tested confirmed".

    The AC Delco has the reputation to back it and is generally priced only a bit more than the junk so a win win.

    Powersteering pump trouble

    Ive had a pump completely apart recently to modify the reservoir. The lines were disconnected as well so no fluid in the system at all. I put the pump on along with the lines, filled the reservoir and cranked the truck. I didnt bleed anything and when I turned the wheel the first time it engaged...

    Fuel pump pushrod stuck??...

    i wonder if the bend lines up with the hole in the block. only way I can see it getting that much lateral force is having a bolt ran into it sideways and even that doesnt seem possible
