Default crankcase ventilation question?

Just finished a major tune up. New plug, distributor cap/rotor and wire all around.

It looks like Jeep does not have PCV valve? What should I do to keep the crankcase properly ventilated.

Thanks.

What year and engine? If you would go to your profile page and fill in that info it will show up under your screen name to the left of the post then no one will ever have to waste a post asking.
Renix (Which I know the most about ) have no PCV like conventional engines do. It is vented into the air intake from those small tubes from the valvecover and nothing else.

Thanks, I added my jeep's information. It is a 99 I6 AWD automatic. Should I do any maintenance on the crank case ventilation?

Think it is different from the Renix system. It may have a PCV to change let me do some research and get back to you antibiotics.
