    colored tubbing

    Hey guys i took all the ugly black tubing off my motor and replaced it with blue stuff. but for some reasom the one that hooks to the PVC valve keeps colapsing right where it bends and goes to the TB i even relaced it once by making the tub longer and it still colapsed do you thing theres a pkug some where or the tube is just to weak?????? i put the OEM back on but haven't looked to see if its colapsed..

    Yep that'll happen. The black "stock" are real stiff they dont collapse. I think the intake sucks with more force then the PCV is blowing and therfore collapses the tube. There isnt as much pressure under the valve cover as there is being drawn into the intake/cyl chambers.

    I dont know if you should keep the colord tube or not on the PCV, someone else will have to answer that. Put a fuel filter inline on that hose though to capture the oil that the pcv blows out and into your intake. (Poor Mans Catchcan)

    this isn't a solution but an alternative. if u can't replace the hose, how about u just slit the hose dressing and slip it over the oem hose.
