Re: {Chrysler 300} Oil Breather Unit

For pre-emission era cars, I was always under the impression these outfits are used if you’d like to conceal your engine is tired, and just send all the blow-by right back into engine to be “recycled”. Not exactly ideal.

That is nothing more than a standard breather/filler cap with a hose bung on it. Why do you think you need to replace it? If the steel wool inside is sludged soak it in kerosene.

You folks call it a PCV, but I still believe I have Breather element. I hope this picture comes through. There is no valve that rattles in this thing, it is an element filled with a fibrous material.

I have wondered about this. The '57 was supposed to have some kind of Clean-Air package on it in California. My '57 was delivered in California and no evidence of crankcase venting or carburator venting was ever mentioned or found. I beleive by '65 PCV's were installed ia all cars. Was your device ever connected to a PCV valve? I had a relative who had a patent on PCV valve that made him wealthy!

Hey folks,
My 1965 Chrysler 300 originates from South San Fransisco, CA. As a result, it has a connecting hose from the air cleaner to the valve cover breather element, and the element has a nub to attach. I cannot find this breather with the nub marketed. While I have soaked the breather element in cleaner, I am concerned about how well it is working. Any ideas or known manufacturers for this element?
