buck_hunter Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 you could probably try to go to a pick n pull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffN Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 https://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/Cata ... ecType%3aA) Or i just found a grommet that fit, went to the pick n pull and cut one of the hard plastic right angle hoses from a later model gm that fit the grommet and used a piece of heater hose to splice it in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 go to the junkyard and grab a newer valve cover and hoses. those old ones are no good IMO. plus it looks like that one has been through hell already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew6279 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I believe that elbow is only about $10.00 brand new from the dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xComancheKidx Posted September 24, 2011 Author Share Posted September 24, 2011 when you say newer valve cover what years will fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 i got mine from a 96 xj but I'm sure they'll work all the way up to 2000. just make sure to grab both lines and the fitting that goes in the manifold. theres a link around here somewhere. if you search youll probably find it here. i think i paid 8 bucks for all of it at pull a part. plus it cuts out the whole blow-by issue. edit. youll also have to buy a new gasket for it though. old and new valve cover gaskets are different.

jeepcoma Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Awesome, thanks for that link. I've been looking for the same emissions stuff for a while too, after breaking one of the valve cover elbows. Anyone know of a coupon code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexluthier72 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I just did this. I got my cover from a 94 wrangler. IF your cover is metal pull it and clean it up and re-use it. IF not, get a metal cover. Make sure you get the RUBBER gasket for it. The cork gasket will not work. You can get a new gromet from Napa, along with an elbow that fits. Before I had the metal cover, I used a grommet from Napa, and a plumming elbow from the hardware store, and it worked great. Just some ideas on the cheap. Do a search for 2.5L valve cover, and you should come up with my DIY post. Edit: The gasket MUST be for the year valve cover you get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiatslug87 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I don't think the HO ones are the same as what you need. These are the vacuum lines for the RENIX engines from NAPA.You need the first one: 7151367 from cover to bracket ~$25 7151366 from bracket to air box ~$25 7151365 from cover to intake in front of TB ~$10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexluthier72 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 xComancheKidx: YES, that is the part you need. Also, pick up a short section of 1/2 inch vacuum hose to replace the piece on the end that connects to it (held on by a zip tie in your photo) Use a hose clamp rather than a zip tie to secure it to both ends. (You can do the same thing with a rubber grommet from Napa (about $5) a short piece of 1/2" vacuum tube (about $1) and an elbow from the hardware store (about $2) Fiatslug87: While I know that that part would replace what he has, and work well, he doesn't need all the extra stuff, and what he has can be fixed with individual parts for less than $10. Seems like alot of extra just to get one hose fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
