Valve cover question
I replaced the valve cover gasket and when I was buttoning everything up I broke the plastic tube that is connected to the rear of the valve cover. I need to know what that tube is called so I can get a new one. It is NOT THE ONE CONECTED TO THE AIR BOX. if anyone could help that would be great. Thanks

Those CCV tubes are hard to find. The other fun part is you will have to pull your valvecover again to replace it, because you have to be able to get at it from the underside. Don't try the old "pry it out with a blade screwdriver" trick because it will break if that isn't where you already broke it. Cheapest way is to find a good one on an XJ in a junkyard.

It's just the plastic hose itself that's broke not the actual valve. I really do not want to take the cover back off. The tube came out of the valve really easy so I should only have to replace the tube.
