[DMCForum] Questions for Martin/Darren (and anyone else?)



Good heavens -- of all the days NOT to be following this group...

Question #1: Where is PCV valve or equivalent? We all know where
breather is, but how does cross ventiliation from passenger side get
back into manifold? Compare to contemporary domestics and you'll see
what I mean. Figure it must be internal somewhere.

Question #2: Why does engine moan internally as soon as breather tube
from air filter housing plugged? If passive shouldn't care.

Question #3: My idle still wanders slightly as if sucking air. As soon
as I spray crank shaft behind pully (where it passes through timing
case cover) smooths out 100%. If passive, again shouldn't affect.

Question #4: When I pinpoint sprayed junction of passenger head,
timing chain cover, and valve cover, would kill engine. Replaced valve
cover gasket, DID NOT TOUCH MANIFOLD ONE SINGLE BIT (already sitting
in a bed of silicone as well as O rings), and now that junction has no
effect on idle. Explain that one.

Question #5: Didn't Rich A find page in Tech Manual where DMC itself
claims engine breathes internally and will suffer calamity if outside
air supply blocked? (Imfamous "Brother Maynard" post).

Question #6: Are there cam access plates on passenger side equivalent
to driver's? Am at work, but don't remember any. You'd think they'd be
mirror copies. And Rich A *DID* have vacuum problem with one of them.

Question #7: Distinctly remember somewhere in Tech Manual warning
against vacuum leaks around dip stick. John Hervey has also stated
such. *THAT* is wierd. (And is this one a question or a statement?)

Question #8: Has anyone ever run their PRV with valve covers off?

Food enough for thought now that time has come to go home and work on
a REAL engine (Ford 460. That's 7.5 litres for our metric friends).
