[Kramer1]

I have for sale a brand new METCO valve cover breather. Metco part number MBR0013. This is Marauder specific. Aluminum threaded adapter with O-ring and K&N style breather filter with chrome top. Comes in original box with decals. This is brand new and never used. I purchased this with the intent of doing a couple mods all at once.....and never got around to any of it....Hence the reason for the sale.
This retails for around $40.00 + Shipping. If you have any questions please ask or PM me. Thanks!

Asking $33.00 SHIPPED in the lower 48 States.

The purpose of this valve cover breather is to vent unwanted accumulation of pressure in the crankcase, and to provide maximum circulation of ambient air in the crankcase to reduce oil temperatures. The installation of this breather will contribute to increased engine oil life and reduce the possibility of failed engine seals resulting from excessive crankcase pressure.

Nice. I see its marauder specific so it wouldnt work on a crown vic.

"This is not how it works, it's not how any of this works" haha are we doing who ever suicide bombs PayPal now with a payment?

Exactly! Very tacky , and classless how redrum overlooked the fact that Guittard was already in the process of buying the item. :bs::bs:

[camelgrundle]

Lol...I hope guittard pm he did not want it. Otherwise Kramer looks just as bad too.

[Marauderjack]

Question.......What would be the purpose of this thing if the PCV system is working like it should...help me out here??:confused:

[RubberCtyRauder]

I might have wrong info, but I thought I read at one time that you do not want to run these if running supercharger..something about unmetered air?..Hopefully someone who knows can elaborate.

[Marauderjack]

Plus the "Blow-By" stench will not be a good thing!!:shake:

[Guittard22]

I did tell him him I have payment by 6:30 pm and I could not log into my dam account because my card was stolen so I had to
Just reset my password and put my gf information on it took way longer than expected with them last night had to call customer service and that was a pain : and to find out its sold now ...should have gave me a warning I was good for the payment was just having PayPal issues .

[Red Rum]

Wow really I ask Kramer1 if he still had it. He said yea. So I send him the money paypal. Now I and him are the Bad guys. Really if it means that much. Why didn't he do like I did. And send the payment fast. If it means that much. I will sell it to him. As soon as I get it. For the same amount. Because tacky and all that is uncalled for. First thing I buy here. Off a member and I am the bad guy. Okay then !

[RubberCtyRauder]

IMO, Kramer dropped the ball and sold ahead of someone wanting them based on what I read. I don't think RR did anything wrong, he paid for something that he was told was available.

That's the way I see it.

[O's Fan Rich]

Simple thing to do is this: 'If the deal falls through, I'll take it."
That being said, a few years ago and item was offered for sale and someone got first dibs on it. I was interested in it and posted the above ( in so many words). A 5 days days later, I pm'd the seller about it and was told there was no money or communication from the "buyer". I said well, when you decide what you want to do, let me know. Next day, seller contacts me, I bought it. And yes, I got messages about how evil i was for buying it out from under him.... so, I sold it to Doom a few months later.
Sometimes you can't win.

Exactly! Very tacky , and classless how redrum overlooked the fact that Guittard was already in the process of buying the item. :bs::bs:
Guys.....There wasnt a race to pay.....there was plenty of contact between me and applicable buyers. I gave GUITTARD first dibs.....he stated he would have payment to me by 6:30 PM lastnight. I never received payment nor another PM from him stating he was having issues. If I had received something from him it would have been held for him. I dont see where it was my responsibility to contact him due to not receiving payment from him. He is the one that stated he would pay me by a certain time. At that point it is HIS responsibility to conact me since he couldnt pay when he said he was going to due to Paypal issues.
I woke up this morning to PM's from other potential buyers. I sold it to the next one in line whom was RED....I figured 14 hours after was plenty of time frame without a response from the initial buyer.....Everyone is so quick to flame....I have never received this kind of flack from a forum before.....going all the way back to CLUBSI.COM for my Civis Si and DelSol in the late 90's to now the Jaguar forums for my F-Type V8 S convertible. In my book, when I list something for sale its open to everyone. If I had a $1 for everyone that called dibs on my parts and never paid over the last 20 years of selling on the internet I would probably be a lot better off than the unfortunate thing of me paying full retail for something and things not work in my favor for a project and I let it go for nearly 20% discount just to make it appealing to everyone else......I buy high and sell low and still get flamed!!!:mad2:

I didnt drop the ball. The initial buyer dropped the ball by not contacting me saying he couldnt pay for it and he was having paypal issues. Its not my responsibility to contact buyers. The buyer set the deadline not me. Its his responsibility to contact me saying "hey Im having issues with Paypal. Please hold it for me".
My response "no problem"
But instead, 14hrs no PM no message no text message from buyer. Hence open to sell to next in line.........:shake:

I said it was based on what I read (posted)..I know we don't see pm;s for things for sale so not everyone posts that a pm was sent etc. I agree that the buyer if having issues should have contacted you to tell you to hold,wait til am etc..it is not sellers job to contact a buyer if they vanish

This is a forum, we all post opinions based on what is posted, plain and simple.

[Red Rum]

Really I will repeat myself again. I pm him. He said it was still available. I don't play. I paypal him fast. For I didn't know. That if you want to buy something here. You have to wait. For the person to paypal you. Whenever they wanted too. It is first come first serve. In my book. So erase this comment again

[Kramer1]

No worries. Just stating the facts. No hard feelings just clearing the air.

ehh, sounds like intitial buyer dropped the ball from what im reading. When he was having issues with his paypal a simple PM to Kramer and im sure he would of waited for him. I doubt Kramer is dying to get that whole whopping $33 bucks as fast as he can. lol

[Chayton]

Ughhhhhhhh

Question.......What would be the purpose of this thing if the PCV system is working like it should...help me out here??:confused:


I had the thing and got a lot of grief for it. Ours is a closed loop pcv system that does not benefit from these. I don't know why they are even sold as applicable to our cars with the claims made by the vendor.

There is a great write up on pcv systems in a recent issue of Muscle Machines (January, 2016 page 64) that explains in detail how important setting up the pcv system is in the proper operation of the car and for best performance.

[J-MAN]

Are these items still available?

[RubberCtyRauder]

Yes, metco sells them

Correct. Valve cover breathers are from the same era as road draft tubes, just a tube going overboard to the road to blow out crankcase pressure and fumes. These are completely inappropriate for a modern engine with a closed crankcase, metered intake air and PCV system. Oil is kept much cleaner by evacuating and burning crankcase gases, which include water vapor among other nasties. Also, installing one of these allows unmetered air past the MAF through the PCV valve. Fresh air drawn into the crankcase must be metered through the MAF per the factory setup, because it then goes into the intake to be burned.

The only minor possible consideration with a PCV system is under some circumstances oil vapor getting into the intake can be undesirable. For example, ahead of turbocharger compressor or a water/air intercooler. A bit of oil film in a regular intake manifold is quite harmless. In these cases an oil/air separator may be desirable.

I am well aware of the positive attributes of a functioning PCV system!!:bows:

I always wonder why folks wish to vent blow-by to the atmosphere and also wonder what benefit they may think the are getting by defeating the PCV system??:confused::shake:

Zero chance of any oil vapors. I run both of my fittings directly down to a two port breather tank. Simple, no fuss, no smell, and never a oily intake.

Ya don't even drive it enough to get oil in the intake Bob!!;)

If you are worried about oil in the PCV line to the intake put a catch can in line......the PCV serves a significant purpose in engine and oil life if you drive it much!!:beer:
