    Air Breather on a stock 258

    Well you know on a stock CJ how the oil from the rear port/hole in the valve cover gets sucked up into the air cleaner & the filter gets full of oil after a while...........try this,
    Take the small plastic 90* bend off & go match it up @ your local AZ or Parts store & replace the plastic 90* w/a PCV valve, it keeps the oil out of the filter/carb & you will get better fuel mileage & won't have to change the filter as much.

    Just a thought,

    Wondered why I had 2 PCVs, AND an oil fill spot on the old metal valve cover I turned the fill into a breather/filler and plugged the one 'PCV' hole, the other of course goes to the carb.

    I was hoping for a really nifty BT aluminium one with a replaceable filter, bit for 8 bucks. I found a cheezy one at Pep Boys.
