20 years of oil build up
« on: May 28, 2010, 05:30:30 PM »
it looks like this



I noticed an excessive amount of oil leaking out the fill cap and gromits so i went to clean the pcv system... went to take the big valve cover / pcv vent and the top of it came off reveling the 4 filters above...  a libral dose of carb cleaner and they are looking closer to new and usable...




only problem was the snap fit of the cover stopped being enough to hold it on defectively so i used some model glue help hold the cap on...

hopefully this will help the oil stay in the engine... the oil on exhaust smell gets old quick. although i just realized this is the end that goes to the airbox so it was just preventing oil from backtracking into the air box/ new air from getting in.....  :brick:

now i just need to pick up my fuel line from the stealership tomorrow to get my jeep back on the road.. (fuel filter change was more involved than i thought somehow..)
