CPT CheapA$$ strikes again! PCV
Well, I am still chasing a high idle issue, so I thought I would replace the dual PCV boot. When the car was idling and you moved the boot it hissed pretty bad. Although Kurt Whites price is not bad at $35+, mine is El Cheapo about $8 with a new PCV included.
The Napa PCV for the ZR-1 has a plastic elbow attached, I combined this with a T I got from O' Reilly's autoparts and here we are: Fit is very tight on the PCVs:  Installed:    I also contacted Gates hoses to try to find a F tube that might work!

The whole set up from Kurt is not cheap, but it works way better than the OEM stuff does after 20 yrs.
