Reply to "Breathers and PCV"

Thanks for the explanation George. I know you “know your stuff” so knew it had to be the way it was written and not what you thought.

It is interesting how messed up Panteras can get from decades of shade tree mechanics wrenching on them so it is important that we know how to put systems back to the correct working order. This forum is a great resource for making that happen.

In the case of my car, when I bought It the PCV system had been disabled by installing a non-vented cap on the intake side of the system. Luckily the engine was not very old and it didn’t have time to be damaged by excess condensation, etc. Some of the stuff I’ve seen on Panteras in the last twelve years of being in the community sometimes amazes me.

What is odd, that in most cases doing it right would have been easer or just slightly more effort. Knowledge gap I guess!!

Mike
