So after 6 hours of work I got the manifold off and ready for cleaning after I broke the plastic piece on the throttle cable going to the tb so their was a $50 surprise but o will say their was alot of oil in the intake so I can't wait yo get it back together and see how she does

 

Get a new PCV from the dealer too. Only dealer.

 

Noob question, but now it has me concerned since I had the quick lube replace mine on my past oil change. Why dealer only on the pcv?

Please enlighten me.

 

Because it's made specific(tighter tolerences for a magnum motor), rather than aftermarket which is made more universal, to fit a verity of different applications.

 

Its all about flow rates. They aftermarket valves don't always have the correct flow rate, even though it says it is for your motor. Excessive flow, and you can suck oil. Not enough flow, and you can end up with crankcase pressure, and blow gaskets/seals.

 

Hmm! You mean like the plenum gasket maybe? JK Hey you never know though.

 

Nah, the plenum gasket just sucks.

 

oops! guess we'll see if my $2.99 valve holds up

 

I bet if we look back , you were told that by somebody. ANd it's in almost all the plenum related threads. Just get one on your way by some day and replace it. Not a big deal short term.

 

probably. i was told so much that im surprised that i remember the majority of it!

not to hijack the OP's thread so i'll start one next week, but my gas mileage is ****tier after the plenum/tune-up. i'll post numbers next week when i run this tank out.
