pcv problem

[sick_stang302]

i pulled off my upper plenum to fix some vacuum leaks, and after i put everything back on, the pcv valve wont fit in the hole for it.
its like the pcv valve got smaller, or the hole got bigger, lol....but seriously, thats the problem, somthing changed size.
is there anything that can fall off of the pcv valve or come out of the hole, to make them change sizes?

Sounds like you lost the rubber grommet.

oh, ok
ive never noticed a grommet before, imma go look for it, lol

the simplest things cause me problems, :wall:

If you can't find it they're like $3 at advance auto. Also make sure the metal screen is in there too, if not the intake will suck oil even worse that it does in stock form. If you don't have that either they're like $5 from any parts store.

The screen should be down in the intake pcv hole. It sits on the baffle so it can't fall into the lifter valley. I forget what exactly they're called but I got one from advance for like $5. I think its just a pcv screen.
