Hi i was was wondering if there is supposed to be smoke coming out of the breather? And is there any brand of valve covers that u can use the oil cap and the oilpresure senser on, because the new valve covers only have one hole in each one and i need two for the oil and oilpressure sensor, or is that the oil pressure sensor that goes on top of the left valve cover (looking at the engine from the front)?

 

get summits catalog.. they have valve covers with 2 holes..

by the way,, i have smoke vapor coming from my breather as well. but as soon as i changed PVC.. problem went away. might want to check it out.

 

Thank you but what is pvc? i am new at this car thing i am only 15
got the car early so i can fix it up .i will look into getting new valve covers with 2 holes thanx again Craig

 

Its PCV and it stands for Positive Crankcase Ventilation. PVC is a type of piping, not related.

The PCV valve is on the the cover that has the oil filler hole. Just pull it out and shake it, if you hear it rattling then its fine, if not replace it. The smoke/vapor you speak of is blow-by, not all that serious. Mine does it too on occasion.

Your oil pressure sensor is not even located on the valve covers.
You couldnt even get an oil pressure reading on the valve cover, so dont even worry about getting a cover with two holes. Just get some that go to your motor, I'm guessing you want chrome.

 

Thnx. I Already have chrome valve covers i was just wondering if you needed one with two holes thnx again, Craig
