    you guys are a riot.... kind of back on topic though.. i have read that changing your pcv frequently is pretty much useless unless you clean the tubing leading up to the pcv (without cleaning it, deposits in the tube clog the new pcv quickly i guess) and i want to clean the tube.. but doont really know how.. carb cleaner im guessing.. question is.. is it okay to get carb cleaner in my oil? spraying it into the pcv valve tubes would surely get some of it into the oil unless i remove the tubes completely from the engine bay before cleaning... any thoughts?

    Better to remove it because the gunk you disloge will end up in the intake.

    I think the Deutsch 193s are just fine. Every time I go to AutoZone I buy all of them. I figure this way they have to keep a good stock of them in.

    PS - Ldub, In my head I can see you dancing and singing the "berries and cream" song. Its genuinely disturbing. Make it stop.

    I hate to keep jackin' this thread...but I believe all pertinent questions have been answered.
    Maybe Moncha could split the non pertinent comments into a new thread titled : "Berries-n-Cream" ?
    Yes, that commercial had my weird-O-meter pegged to the far right & a big Thank You to Pho for doing the leg work on youtube.
    Bart, I'm sorry, but only you can make it stop...I guess I could help, but you wouldn't like what I replaced the current images with.
    Tom... yeah, you've got me there...If it weren't for weird, I'd have no personality at all.
    Dino, welcome to the fam...hope someday in the future to meet you, I'm planning to go back to the Big Island some day when my bank acct is more bountifull for some diving.

    OH yeah...PCV valve: change is good!

    Well, if you're worried about jacking the thread, just keep it on topic by swapping the letters "PCV" for the words "berries -n- cream".

    That way the song would go a little something like this...in a falsetto voice:

    "PCV...
    PCV...
    I'm a Little Lad Who Loves
    PCV"

    In all seriousness, I'm due for a pre-summer oil change, so I probably will try to find that Purolator model. Weeeee!

    BTW Anyone else think the Starburst commercials lately have been just plain discusting? After one commercial I thought that they had developed a new flavor - dolphin spit.

    a bit unnerving

    ive been using the purolator pcv.. all this talk of them made me want to check mine.. so i went and yanked up on it.. and the pcv separated into two peices!.. the good news is that it was squeaky clean after about 7000 miles but i had to get a new one of course

    Berries -N- Cream & PCV

    Tried to change the title of the thread. Did not work. I thought this title would be more appropriate:

    Berries -N- Cream & PCV

    Thanks for being a "good sport" & for not getting all bent.

    This thread should be used as an example "topic erosion"!

    I don't think the "finger of blame" is pointed at any single person here...we all done bad. But hey, don't cry over spilled water under the dam I always say.
