[Amc-list] 196 PCV

[Joe Fulton <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tom,

I think I gave you a couple of motor side cover plates with that sheet metal for the 196 you picked up.  I might need one of them back if it has the small opening to attach the PCV valve hose.  I have an older type side plate which has the large hose to replace the old road draft tube.  Can you check to see which one I gave you?  I'll check around here in my parts stash tomorrow, but I might need to find one with the hose attachment (about 1/2 to 3/4 inch hose).  I can modify one if I can't come up with one though.

Regards,
Joe Fulton
