    hey guys, so my pcv valve on my 72 mav 2.8l is real loose, ive never looked into it but it can be pulled out with ease, do I just buy a pcv valve grommet or is there something else I need, the hole is about 3/4 in diameter

    I would advise getting a valve cover gasket and removing the valve cover to replace the grommet. It will probably disintegrate when you go to remove it and all the pieces will fall into the engine! Been there, done that! :cry:
