My VX has a PCV from the factory

Got your attention right VX owners?
I'm an active user over at gassavers. I'm not yet allowed to post links as I have less than 5 posts. Go to gassavers and search vx pcv. The first article that comes up is "93' Civic VX horrible Fuel Economy." On page 3, about half way down, (starting with post #81) there are photos and a description of what I found. (maybe another user can post this link for me)


To summarize what you will find over at gassavers, the PCV valve is actually a straight type pcv valve located at the breather box below the IM. It plugs in at the grommet to the hose that later feeds the hollow elbow that most people (including me) have assumed was the PCV valve. VX owners, please find the breather box under the IM and pull the end of the rubber hose going into it. At the end of the hose is a clamp and a plastic straight piece. When cleaned you will find PCV inards (spring, one way valve).
Let me know if other VX's have this same set up!
