and0pand0 Neutral Member Join Date: Nov 2005 Car: Posts: 50 Photos:	Positive Crankcase Ventilation Anyone know the details of the m42 (318is) motor's PCV system? I just wanna make sure all the parts are there for it on my car. All I see is the vent hose running to ported vacuum. I don't see any check balls or PCV valve or anything. Very old school style system, even for a '91. Starmavin, any input on this?

I grew up old school as well. My first car was a 68 plymouth furry III my first performance car is a 68 firebird convt (currently being restored).
