My second 1965 Dodge Dart.
Yesterday I tried to put on the brand new PCV valve I have. I bought the valve itself from one place, and the cup and spring from a totally different place. The old PCV valve was not there when I bought the car, it is just like a second oil cap there.
Anyway, the cup in question was advertised for a V8, but since they looked the same I assumed they where the same. I sort of could not imagine Chrysler changing the size of the tube for something like that.
The new cup does not fit. It is too tight and does not go over the tube on the valve cover. If the diameter of the cup had been 1/32" larger in diameter it would have slid right over the tube.
So, does anyone know what is the issue here ?
Did Chrysler really have two types of cups and valve cover tubes, or is this just a part that is made wrong ?
Any help is appreciated.
