PCV Vacuum line sucking shut
#14
I just went ahead and ordered the one from LMR, hopefully this can solve my problem. I feel like if its' pulling enough vacuum to suck these lines closed forcing it to stay open with a stronger line is just working around the problem and not actually fixing anything.
Hopefully this will fix my weird random rumbling noise when idling

If that's the case then I'll probably end up making a copper line like you did. Have you noticed any ill effects after putting it on? Might be a dumb question but copper doesn't have any bad reactions to oil does it? I'm assuming you used a 1/2" copper elbow to connect to the pcv valve as well?

btw. I used the 1/2" copper elbow and fitted it over the pvc nipple. I attached a heavy 1" tubing over the elbow and clamped it then clamped the other end of the nipple. If you look on the side of the valve cover you will see oil seeping down so slowly, I thought I would have to change the valve cover, a job I dreaded bigtime. It took me a couple of yrs to realize it was coming from the pvc. now its bone dry.
