Kirban's pcv valve?

[josh young]

Is the kirbans pcv valve still the go to for the discontinued a delco 893? I'm needing the line too, do they still sell them as a set? I couldn't seem to find the hose on their site. Thanks.

I think I have a new delco PCV. PM me if interested.

The Kirbans one will work fine. HighwayStars has the original PCV for our cars http://www.highwaystars.net/valve-pcv-valve-gm-25095468/. They also have a cheaper option http://www.highwaystars.net/valve-pcv-valve-pcv242/

I've run both. The only difference I saw was a slight bump in idle blm with the 242 compared to the 893C. No biggie. Other than that the ECM expects to see an unmetered air leak from the PCV and will compensate.

IMO they both suck. Use the one from AutoZone can't remember part number.

1162 blow thru it to verify seal.

Two out of the three 893 valves I bought didn't seal at all. The check balls moved freely but the valves acted like hollow tubes instead of check valves. I'm glad I bought three.
