Hi Dave,
I don't understand how your pcv hose is routed. Where is the  the pcv hose
attached at each end?

We have a desmogged '70 Midget. It has the earlier carbs without the vacuum
intakes for crankcase ventilation and has been fitted with a PCV valve. It's
taken to pulling oil into the carbs via the PCV valve. The valve itself seems
OK, but I can't think of any other reason for the problem. We've already been
through the sealed vs. vented oil filler cap, and have a vented cap on the
car.

Any ideas appreciated. I don't particularly want to order another PCV valve
for no good reason.

Thanks,
Dave Ambrose
