i need the two plastic valves on the valve cover.... what are they called and where can i get them

 

Good luck.... I was looking for both as well, cause one of mine was broken when I bought the Jeep, and the other one I broke by accident when I was using a pair of vise grips to get my broken oil cap off right after I bought the Jeep... and I went to autozone they said their distributor was out of stock and had been for a while, so I went to two different Jeep dealerships to pruchase them, and they both told me the same thing as well... so hopefully your dealerships are worth their money, cause the ones I have aren't... I ended up hitting a JY and got them both.. They would be the same thing as a PCV valve on most cars... but they don't call them a PCV valve anymore it is called something else, but if you go to the stealership and tell them that you are looking for the two PCV valve elbow pieces on top of the valve cover they should know what you are talking about anyways.

 

They are both for the CCV system,Who has them dealer ,napa, just about any online store.

 

Got the mine at the stealership. Also replace the gromets they get hard and they are streached out so bad that they leak oil. gets hot under the hood lol. No more burnt oil smell. Thought I needed a value cover gasget. Cleaned with gunk, all nice and clean. And now it doesent smell like a jeep. I think I miss it!!!!

 

I know other people have had nightmares trying to get them. See if you can find a valve cover at the JY that still has them.

 

they are your CCV's, I got mine at autozone for around $5, and the grommet ran around $8. You can check online to see if the store has them before you get em

They had problems cause they most likily called them PCV Valves and not CCV Valves.

 

thank you i called a pcv valve thats why they could find it.... be mazda had a pcv valve

 

O'reilly has them. PCV valves, fit more than just a cherokee. Replaced both of mine plus grommets a while ago.

 

jeeps do not have PCV valves, they have "CCV Fittings" - totally different system.

The rear elbow is the actual CCV fitting, and it is simply a elbow with a certain size hole in the end of it - there is no valve. The front elbow is exactly that, just an open elbow.

Jeep dealership has both the elbows and grommets. You reall shouldn't need to replace the elbows, just clean them up real good with carb cleaner and reinstall. I would get new grommets though since as a previous poster said, they get hard and don't seal well when they get old.

 

The CrankCase Ventilation (CCV) and Postive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) are essentially the same thing, they allow air to circulate via a vacuum from the throttle body and an inlet of fresh air from the air box. This puts blow-by gasses back into your engine to be burned. A failed CCV or PCV will result in blow-by gases exiting through the intake port and creating the annoying oil buildup of oil on your air filter. Air should go in the front, out the back, but if that valve fails or your vacuum from the TB is clogged, you'll have, I guess, negative cranckcase ventilation.

Edit: CCV is "Closed Crankcase Ventilation." Still the same thing though, as the vac system is considered "closed" (since vac intake is through the intake manifold).

As I said, they are listed incorrectly on multiple websites. We are trying to solve the problem not confuse the OP. Be sure the information is correct before posting it. The failproof way to get the right part is to get it from the dealership, of clean the one you have since there is no moving parts in the orifice to fail.
