What hose goes here?


Recommended Posts

Ok, so it runs to the PCV valve?   I'm not around the car to check, but going from memory, I feel like that barb was a bit bigger than the PCV valve.

 

**edit**  I was just looking at a PCV hose online and one end is larger.

Yep, that's where my "uses a special braided hose" comment comes into play

 

The crankcase vent IS slightly larger than the PCV valve. The Nissan hose is pre bent, and has the correct sized openings.

I defer to you newzed, that may very well be the case, I was told the oil frothing reason by the zparts guy that sold me the part. 

 

The hose has a bulge on one end to accommodate the bigger port for the crank case, and the rest of the hose is thinner to fit the pcv. I think I may actually have a very slightly used one if you need a picture/replacement.

Yeah, if you have one in decent shape, I could use one.  How much you want for it?
