I think the main purpose is to reduce the crank case pressure preventing seals/gasket being damaged, venting it into the carb and reducing emissions. I think a faulty valve can upset the idle and running. There's a tiny bleed hole on the top...
An update on servicing the 2.25 petrol pressure control valve PCV.
The rubber diaphragms are easily sourced for MG/triumph, they are made in Britain and appear good quality.
To check the valve you can blow down the the top and check for sealing...
Yes! Exactly! I saw your earlier posts, and have book marked them.
If I don't get the dimension, I'll make it up, must be nearly in line with the gutter.
Incidentally, the aluminium bars that are inserted into the hood, how do they attach to...
not a fan of that size of jubilee clamp prefer the two wire type the jubilee clamps tend to distort the rubber hoses you can get smaller thinner jubilees that would fit better or the correct sized modern spring tensioned clamps ,be careful when...
Thankyou mystery, mystery solved!

So update, took landrover into garage today who bled brakes and tested them. Reasonable braking force but long pedal travel. He said adjuster on rear not working and needed adjusting on front as well. Discovered rear did not have pin in shoe for...
The garage did bleed the brakes and get some air out, annoyingly managed to do it the old fashioned way so don't know why I couldn't do it. Never seem to have much luck with brakes, it was the same on my classic mini
Hello everyone!
I just got my driving license yesterday. I'm 24 and applied for the license only to go off the beaten track (I work from home permanently, so no commuting involved). As a result my next car has to handle some light to medium...
Hi all,
After a gap of landy ownership of a few years I've just purchased a 1972 S3 88.
Its got a perkins prima diesel conversion in and I'm wondering if anyone here can fill in any gaps in its history which is a total blank at present.
