<VV> Advice on PCV needed

[Bob Tarpenning]

I had a problem with idle with the A/C on.  If the car was idling and I 
turned the A/C on it would die instantly.  I also had to turn the idle 
screws out 2 1/2 turns to get good idle with the A/C off. After checking 
everything else I checked the pcv.  It had the early type with the pcv valve 
in the hose.  I pulled it off and installed the late style with the orifice 
in the metal tube.  Now it idles great even with the A/C on.  I also had to 
turn the idle screws in for a good idle.  They are out about 1 1/2 turns 
now, the usual amount.

As Matt suggested. Replace it. But make sure you have the properly sized
PCV orifice for that engine. I think there are multiple versions out there.
