A BIG THANK YOU to Irish44j and everyone else involved in the pcv blow-by unit project. I installed this mod recently and wow power is returned!!!! no more retarded timing due to bad mixture!!!! So my hat is off to all involved.THANKS AGAIN.

 

no prob...though I certainly wasn't the first to do this or write it up

 

Wow, I'll def need to be doing this soon.

 

just got all my supplies today
all i could find was the clear braided tubing, but i want to look for some high temp black tubing...it'll just make me feel better

 

hope you enjoy it doc...let us know how much you collect...

 

Is this for 3.5 engines? Will I benefit since I will be swapping a VQ35 in my car or does it have to be in a 5th gen??

 

it can be any car for that matter...as long as it has a pcv valve...

 

That clear hose isn't the best stuff. I used it and it got hot then Collapsed in the bends. I ran a much shorter peice than the pic, because I didn't like the look of that long hose running all over the engine area.

Advance auto parts has hose made just for the PCV valve.

I tried fuel line but it to collapsed. Even if the hose feels strong the heat kills it.

Keep in mind most of the hose people are using is designed to take pressure not vac.

 

Im going to see if I can get some custom stainless steel braided line fabricated for the job. Have to find a place locally that will do it without charging an arm and a leg.

 

Thanks for the good idea Irish44j. heading to home depot today. You should do a step by step for this mod. The hose connects back to the crankcase under the VIAS right?

 

how come when I did mine I could hear a very audible suction (or blowing don't remember which one now) noise. I inatalled everyting correctly but I could hear airflow that I couldn't hear before, and it was comming from where my pcv valve was. Is it just me? Was it the wrong hose? or is that normal?

 

Mine made the same noise. I have to assume it's normal because I've had mine on for about 6 months now with no problems.

 

Hey guys, sound like a nice little project to do over the week-end. Where can I found the part list ?

Thanks

 

mos def steven88!!!!!!. so far in just a day of driving I had collected enough to fill a small thimball. thats alot for one day!!!!

 

try power steering line, made for heat and pressure

 

sounds like air is leaking from the lines, get some air line fittings to tighten the hose down ( home depot) compressor fittings section in hardware. see if that works

 

I wanna do this for my 6th gen, anyone have a link to the 3.5 write up?

 

yeah, where is the real link?
