Re: Yes? 700 86

Thank you for your prompt reply. Following instructions in 700/900 FAQ, I tried to change PCV components. Sure enough, they were desperately needed. The nipple was completely plugged up and hoses were not better. Engine seals front and back and distributor seal had to be replaced. I got the breather box from Swedish Engieering but they could not supply the kit. I got the nipple too. I was aware heater hoses would not do, but could find no hoses. I cleaned hoses on the car as best I could with carburetor cleaner. Still, they soil things helped by dissolving effects of Mobil 1. Vacuum is good now. I would like to change those hoses to keep things as clean as possible and seals in place for as long as I can. If you know the P/N for the kit, please let me know it. Lacking that, what kind of hose can I use. How about 5/8 inch hydraulic hose? Thank you for all your helpful posts at Brickboard and any information you can give me now. Best regards.
