Either way ( CCV or PCV) they do the same thing. It’s not that big of a deal… well, until you get to the parts counter and the guy tapping on the keys can’t find the part because he’s looking for PCV valve. Part names do matter, but these two do essentially the same thing. 🤙 But I got another one for ya 😁 Is it a distribution block or a proportioning valve! 😄

Good explanation, I just changed mine 2 days ago. When I purchased it I asked for a PCV and wasn’t corrected so up until 2 days ago that’s what I thought I was working with. I had only bought one so after realizing there was 2 and having to cut the first one out as you mentioned I went for the hunt online for the second one. I come to find out they are sold in pairs and it’s called a CCV, I then researched CCV! Here I was thinking all I was doing was a valve cover gasket job and now I’m thinking this is the reason valve cover gaskets prematurely fail on these. I do believe changing the CCV helped with a smoother idle as well, I do not believe mine was completely clogged as I don’t have oil on the filter but it was dang close! Now onto throttle body cleaning and new injectors………have a good day!

Cool! You just answered several questions. Thanks man, now, also, on the back side of my air filter housing there are two nipples side by side. On my manifold there are two there too. 🤧 I noticed there were no hoses hooked up. There were only nubs from the old hoses. I plugged off the nubs on the manifold. The other two are still open. There seems to be a lot of oil pressure pushing the air out of that opening where the plug is. Vapor is coming out all the openings. The rubber on the front and back plugs is like you said. I gotta replace those. I can’t believe that’s all it is but then there’s that vacuum you mentioned and maybe that’s it. Oh well thanks man. I love this motor. 🤧🙄

215k miles now 340k miles yea I should have done that with the head gasket Best thing I learned was overheating fix. Don’t delete or use cooler thermostat. Use OEM about 195 thermostat. It didn’t make sense to me, but it keeps the coolant in the radiator long enough to actually cool down instead of circulating, hot coolant. I had overheating after water pump and head gasket replacement. Added fan shroud that brought I down 10 degrees. The right thermostat at the right temp solved overheating for good You would think a 165 opening at a lower temp would mean it runs cooler. That’s not true at all. Coolant needs to be cooled to have a cooling effect. Otherwise it just keeps everything hot. Let it sit in your radiator long enough to cool down ;-)

Hey man. I just thought I'd provide a little bit of information that I'm gained from my research back. A few years ago, my brother had a rear main seal leak in his jeep xj and we're like man. We don't wanna we don't wanna do the rear main seal... So I did a lot of research and came across the fact that the rear CCV orifice. Is typically too small. A diameter and the inline 6 gets high case pressure, which leads to oil being pushed out the rear main seal. So what I did? What we did is we put a big fat like half inch line coming out of that back orifice CCV. And it' stopped leaking. , so I'm just sharing that with you alright? Thank you.

The front one goes via the throttle body into the intake manifold, the back one goes directly to the intake manifold. I've seen both the front and rear ports being used to place the catch can.

The physical replacement of the metered orifice?

I have a 1980 CJ5 with the 258 engine. PO put a 2 barrel Ford MC2100 carb on it. On the front of valve cover he put an oil breather on it. the back has the pcv vlave on it with hose going to carb. is that set up complete or am I missing something? Thanks!!

Should be two vents on the valve cover, one of them is the metered orifice.

I came across this video while trying to find out why my vent air goes to defrost when I'm merging onto a freeway. I suspect a small vacuum leak somewhere because everything works okay at normal city speeds. Would a clogged CCV cause the air to divert to the default blower position (Defrost and Floor) when the 4.0 is revved up or more "Load" is applied to it? Great video by the way.

There is a vacuum reservoir behind the front bumper, check from there all the way back to the engine for leaks...I will be doing the same when I install my new engine later this year.

@@superb60ce Thanks. I found out about that canister a few years back. It's always the first thing I check. My whole vacuum line deteriorated so badly that I recently replaced the whole line with a new one. Air blows great now from the dash vents until I push down on the skinny pedal and put some load on the engine. Then the air goes from dash vents to defrost. I saw your video and thought maybe the CCV is starving the vacuum when I load up the 4.0. What do you think? Could the CCV be partially plugged or maybe the rubber grommet is dried and cracked? I do seem to get oily residue around both ports on the valve cover.

If you are blowing it out of the dipstick, the crank case is over pressurized. I would replace the CCV ports and hoses

I have a question. Are the 2 valves on the 4.0 the same type? I need to replace my front one bc it's broken, but want to replace the rear as well. I've seen both with small and big orifices. Is the front small and rear big? Or, are they the same?

Can you help with how to run a F.A.T.S vent system with CCV? For a non emissions 97 TJ 4L. dedicated rock crawler, roll overs on roof are common! When on roof leaks all oil out unless recovered quick. I think most of it comes out of front valve cover vent into air cleaner tube, if the nose is down (upside down) as filter get soaked. tried one way rollover valves that doesn't work so I'm going with supposedly proven FATS: Fuel Air Trap System Search, 'How to Keep Fluids in your Rock Bouncer' Controlling oil leaking out at valve cover vents needed but how do I deal with the CVC? If I plug it it wants to stall if I leave it open the idle is too high. Do I move the metered orifice at the end of the hose routing of FATS? .. sorry long question.

Yes, run a FATS (hose around the engine) from the front port and put a catch can between it and the air filter box.

@@superb60ce Thanks for reply. Using front vent for FATS should work in majority the rolls that are nose down when upside down, what about when Jeep upside down level or leaning towards rear? The rear metered valve will flow oil (slowly but will leak) I'm thinking two separate FATS, the rear is still connected in the same two locations but just do FATS loop in between around the engine??

@CrawlingArizona

The rear valve cover vent would be more likely to fill the intake manifold (when upside down) & cause hydrolock if plugs weren't pulled/cleared before startup.
