Question Need help routing the small PVC hose 3VZ

I'm going back up after a remanufactored engine swap in my 95 pickup.
These is a small barb connection coming 90 degrees off the main PCV hose and I cannot determine where it should go. I have the official Toyota engine manual and have spent much time trying to track it down without any success.

I hope someone can route it out for me. If so, I have another such problem that I won't go into yet.

Thanks
Harry

Doesn't sound familiar and I just took my PCV system apart yesterday. A picture should help get some useful responses. Are you sure its PCV?

Not really sure and I'll see if I can get a picture, it's all back together so it may not show very well

It's mounted in the top of the passenger side valve cover. It has a short large hose with the twoway barbed fitting.

Thanks
Harry

There is only one hose coming from the valve cover so it is the pcv. It goes srtsight up and 180's into the pass side of the intake manifold, there should be a tube to connect it too that's about 12 mm in diameter.

Could be they didn't use the correct hose (I didn't for awhile) so they used 2 hoses connected with a T and the one part has nothing connected to it.

Solution: Go to the dealer and buy the correct PCV hose. Worth all $20.

No problem. I did the same thing and my oil pressure was wacko.
