[TR] TR4A PCV valve

[Dave Connitt]

List,
Well, I am cleaning up the PCV valve that came on my TR4A IRS and am kind of
torn on installing it or maybe sourcing a modern type vavle. I remember
someone posting a comment about how much trouble they had getting the original
valve working correctly. Am I having a senior moment here or is there possibly
a better solution?
The valve was in suprisingly good condition on the inside after I bead blasted
everything. The rubber diaphram was intact but very stiff. The little coil
spring behind it was extremely weak but I have no idea what the original
tension was supposed to be.
What kind of luck has everbody had?
By the way I am loving this Caswell Zinc Plating kit. It is kind of slow as
each part needs about 20-30 minutes to plate but I am just about done with all
the carburetor and throttle linkage. Still need to get the carburetor bodies
back from Joe Curto to finish up the carbs but things are moving steadily
towards completion!
Met another TR4A owner in Germany through my website. It never ceases to amaze
me how people in this hobby are so enthusiastic about their cars..
