    Hello,
    I've seen two PCV outlet port locations for the F134. One is on the pushrod cover and the other is on the rocker arm cover. From what I gather the rocker arm cover is the later version. Does anyone know why the change was made?
    I've noticed my rocker arm cover PCV port seems to pull oil to a degree. I get oil drips from the rubber hose I'm using. I have the parts to convert to the pushrod cover and was wondering what the pros and cons would be for this change.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Just guessing, maybe when vacuum wipers from the dual-action fuel pump were deleted? Someone here will know.

    Can you post pictures of both sides of the motor?

    I believe that the side mount design is earlier as it was used on l4's long before those fancy-shmancy OHV cover thingies came along.

    I have a 1965 CJ-5 with an F-134 with vacuum wipers and the dual-action (vacuum and fuel) fuel pump. My PCV valve draws vapors from the top of the rocker arm cover. I have seen pictures of earlier F-134's where the crankcase vapors are drawn from the pushrod/engine side cover.

    Wikipedia...

    "Although the modern purpose of a positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system is to reduce air pollution, the original purpose was to allow an engine to operate underwater without the water leaking in. "

    Gee... that's sounds just like a military Jeep doesn't it?
