IF you have filters, that just means that they vent to atmosphere. Hence that is why they stink. No filters and it goes back into the intake to be burned without oil and crap.

The filters eliminate the vacuum for the valve covers. The manifold will pull more air from the filters then the valve covers.

Also need to put the pcv valves back in the holes :eek:
I’m pretty sure the cans will work better that way & as Rusty says, sealed cans :iagree:

Morning all! Hope you had a great weekend, regardless of whether or not you made it to the great Western PA Orgy (I definitely missed being there).

On a more somber note, RIP my dad's Porsche. As I'd mentioned to you guys in passing, he'd been restoring a 996 series 911 after years without anything more mobile than a minivan. He'd just finished replacing the seats and top, was on his way home, and smoke started filling the cabin. He pulled into a parking lot, popped the front, and saw flames. Not much in the front except wiring and the battery, so most likely a wiring issue. He couldn't get at it with his floormats, quickly called 911 (2 blocks from a fire house) but it took them more than 10 minutes to roll out by which time the whole car was just a column of flames. Heartbreaking :-/ He took it pretty well, all things considered.
