93 4.0 PCV valve

[Hawkeye]

I need to replace my pcv valve, but the only one available from Any of the parts suppliers has two lines coming off at a 90 degree elbow.
How are you supposed to connect that without kinking the line? Do you just have to run a long enough hose to ensure it doesn't kink?

Or does anyone have a part number for an old style pvc valve that will work?

i would just run a longer line, myself, if i couldn't find the straight one.

or just have the parts guy pull some straight ones off the shelf and compare them to yours to find a similar size one. its just a ball inside that blocks an orifice when the truck is off so any should work that fits

Well I learned something today. That 90 degree elbow will come off so you can use the straight line coming out the top.
The person I spoke to at NAPA was unaware that the elbow was able to come off without breaking it. Now I know
