Default My problem fixed

I replaced the PCV valve which is an $8 part for my 2004 dodge dakota. Now when I push the gas pedal all the way down I'm climbing over 40 mph fairly quick. I test drove it on the freeway and climbed up to 70mph no problem. I suggest anyone experiencing this problem with loss of power or acceleration to start out with cheapest fixes like PCV valve. Things like this are not sensors but they can effect your gas to air ratio. I thought it was the torque converter going bad. I was WRONG!

Don't spend much time on forums do you. You don't need to answer that, I already know. So, let me give you a hint. Resurrecting old threads is bad etiquette, it annoys the mods/admins, which is never a good plan. Calling me a troll is a rather idiotic error, I will let is slide ONCE, do it again, and you will be history. Same goes for dragging up old threads. Don't do it.
