Re: [Amc-list] 196 PCV



No problemo -- I know what it looks like, I have one on the car. If it's

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.
